Experimental Study on Expansion Characteristics of Core-Shell and Polymeric Microspheres by Pengxiang Diwu, Baoyi Jiang, Jirui Hou, Zhenjiang You, Jia Wang, Liangliang Sun, Ye Ju, Yunbao Zhang, Tongjing Liu

“…Based on the experimental results, the core-shell microsphere is suitable for injection in the early stage to block the near-wellbore zone, and the polymeric microsphere is suitable for subsequent injection to block the formation away from the well. A simple mathematical model is proposed for size evolution of the polymeric and core-shell microspheres.…”
