Fabrication of ionic liquid-cellulose-silica hydrogels with appropriate thermal stability and good salt tolerance as potential drilling fluid

This paper investigates the rheological properties of methylcellulose-silica-ionic liquid nanocomposite (2-MCPS-MC) on the rheological properties (apparent viscosity (AV), plastic viscosity (PV), yield point (YP), 10-s gel strength, 10-min gel strength, and thixotropy according to API requirements)...
