Experimental results indicated that the presence of electrolyte cations in the reaction system could decrease electrostatic repulsion and form intermolecular interactions between HA molecules, thus inducing a fast aggregation of HA colloids. A relatively small shear force could facilitate the formation of HA aggregates by enhancing the efficiency of intermolecular collisions, while a high shear force could break the large aggregates into smaller particles. With the increase of the water temperature, HA colloids aggregated aggressively due to the enhanced random Brownian motion of the particles. However, large aggregates formed at higher temperatures disaggregated rapidly due to the enhanced Brownian motion and thermal kinetic energy of water molecules.

The shape factor, which represents the geometric shape of the nanoparticles, plays a significant role in enhancing thermophysical properties.

The characteristic of each constraint is presented through graphs, and the simulated results for the rate coefficients are also depicted in tabular form. The results reveal that the shape factor significantly affects the flow behaviour, with different shape factors leading to distinct flow patterns.

To address this issue, the relationship between molecular structure and performance of HPAM solution is studied. The drag reduction study indicates that higher molecular weights of HPAM are associated with poorer drag reduction performance as viscosities above 15 mPa·s. For optimal drag reduction, the hydrolysis degree of HPAM should be maintained between 15 and 26%. The Proppant transport study shows that an increase in hydrolysis degree enhances proppant transport capabilities, but further increases beyond 33% result in diminishing improvements.
