Friction reducer

The friction reduction is from MoDTC deterioration. Other antioxidants are essential to extend friction reducing capability (Korcek et ah, 1996). 

The friction reducing ability is completely depleted when ZDDP is consumed, but while MoDTC is still present (Johnson et al., 1995). 

The friction reducing capabilities are not only affected by the additives and ligand exchange products, but also base oil can have a dramatic effect (Johnson et al., 1997c). 

Friction reducers such as partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide may also be used in drilling fluids (19). They allow fluid to be circulated through the well bore more easily thereby reducing horsepower requirements for the circulating pumps and thus decreasing well treatment costs. 

In the presence of friction reducing additives in engine oil, a friction coefficient of 0.04 was observed which increased up to 0.12 after the additives had been depleted (Johnson et al., 1997a).

As first shown by Caldeira and Leggett [1981], friction reduces the transition probability in the tunneling regime by a factor 

High fluid injection rates are often required. For this reason, friction reducers are often used in acid fracturing. These include polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers, guar gum, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and karaya gum (108) 

A few comments on (2.27), (2.29), and (1.12) are appropriate at this point. The activation energy in the Arrhenius region is independent of 17, since friction changes only the velocity at which a classical particle crosses the barrier and thus affects only the preexponential factor. However, friction reduces both kc and Tc and thereby widens the Arrhenius region. Dissipation has a noticeable effect on the temperature dependence of
