SYNTHESIS OF СОPOLYMERS OF C12–C16 ALKYLMETHACRYLATES WITH STYRENE AND INVESTIGATION OF THEM AS VISCOUS AND DEPRESSANT ADDITIVES
The synthesis has been made of copolymers of C12–C16 alkylmethacrylates with styrene, possessing thickening and depressing properties in composition of petroleum oils. Conditions providing production of copolymers with required characteristics are found. The influence of synthesized copolymers on viscosity-temperature and depressant properties of oils has been studied. The recommendation on using investigated copolymers as bifunctional additives are made.
