Effect of TiO 2 content on the acid resistance of a ceramic proppant
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The acid resistance of fracturing proppant is poor in general, which affects oil exploration. We have discovered that adding BaCO3 and reducing SiO2 can improve acid resistance. A ceramic proppant created in an Al2O3-TiO2-BaCO3-MgO (ATBM) system. The effects of TiO2 content and the proportion of BaCO3/MgO on acid solubility were investigated using a 12 wt% HCl + 3 wt% HF acid mixture. The acid solubility of sample is as low as 0.13 wt%. It is useful for increasing the acid resistance of ceramic proppant that control formed phases and improve microstructure by the ratio of components and technological system.
