Characterization of Athabasca asphaltenes separated physically and chemically using small-angle X-ray scattering
Download

Fall 2010

Amundarain, Jesus

Athabasca asphaltenes were characterized using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) with synchrotron radiation. Two methods were used to separate asphaltenes from Athabasca bitumen. Conventional chemical separation by precipitation with n-pentane, and physical separation realized by passing...
