A Novel Modified Petroresin Particle (MPRP) With Enhanced Oil–Water Selectivity for Cold Production in Heavy Oil Reservoirs (Adv. Funct. Mater. 75/2026)
Abstract
Modified Petroresin Particles Inspired by the ancient Chinese legend of Yu (the Great taming floods), this cover illustrates the selective water shutoff capability of modified petroresin particles (MPRP). MPRP disperses in water and cohesively aggregates at target sites to form effective plugs against water channeling, while readily dissolving in crude oil without hindering oil flow. More details can be found in the Research Article by Guang Zhao, Huazhou Li, and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/adfm.77046).
