Correlation between Asphaltene Stability in n-Heptane and Crude Oil Composition Revealed with Chemical Imaging
Five crude oil samples with different physical properties have been studied with respect to asphaltene stability. The attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopic imaging approach of n-heptane-induced precipitation has been used to monitor crude oil behaviour under...
