Influence of alkyl chain length in ionic liquid based drilling mud for rheology modification: a review

The research has shown successful application of ionic liquids (ILs) as drilling fluid additives for modifying the mud rheology. Ionic liquids are tuneable solvents comprising of hundreds of combination of various cations and anions. The cationic portion mainly comprises of a side alkyl chain which...
