Two novel betaine surfactants with distinct hydrophilic headgroups were synthesized, including carboxybetaine surfactant (DCB) and sulfobetaine surfactant (DSB). Their properties of reducing the interfacial tension (IFT) of Xinjiang crude oil/water were studied under alkaline-free conditions, as were their thermal stability, wettability, and emulsification properties. The chemical structures of the target products were characterized and analyzed by using 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The experimental results indicate that the introduction of a benzene ring to the hydrophobic group can improve the solubility and high-temperature resistance of the betaine surfactant. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the degradation temperature of the synthesized betaine was above 190 °C. As the concentration of the betaine solution increased, DSB (0.0750 mmol/L) showed a lower critical micelle concentration (CMC) than DCB (0.1852 mmol/L). The wetting ability of DCB was significantly higher than that of DSB, and their contact angles on paraffin film decreased to 28.36° and 35.26°. In addition, both DCB and DSB can reduce the IFT of Xinjiang crude oil/water to ultra-low levels (10−3 mN/m) in the absence of alkali. The appropriate ion concentration has a synergistic effect on the surfactant to reduce the interfacial tension of oil/water and the effect of the three ions on the interfacial tension was as follows: Na+ < Ca2+ < Mg2+. |
