Abstract
Hydrogel-coated proppants and methods for manufacture thereof. In preferred embodiments, the hydrogel coating is covalently attached and crosslinked to the proppant substrate in a core-shell structure. The enhanced proppant provides great flexibility in terms of functionalities that can be incorporated into the hydrogel coating. Also, the swelling behavior and mechanical properties of the hydrogel coating can be tailored as desired by varying the amounts of components in the composition such as monomer, crosslinker, polymer, silane comonomer, and initiator.
