Abstract This study introduces a novel and promising strategy based on waterborne polymers for hydrate and corrosion risk management and incompatibility issues between them. The results demonstrated a good performance of waterborne polyurea/urethanes (WPUUs) in delaying the induction time (up to 17 times) and reducing the hydrate growth rate (up to 7.7 times) compared to water. Moreover, the hydrates formed in the WPUUs system at water-cut 60% were uniformly dispersed in the liquid phase like slurry and they are particularly appropriate for the flow in the pipelines. In addition, the weight loss, SEM-EDX, profilometer, and quantum chemical studies showed that the WPUUs suppress the corrosion process in a severely corrosive environment (2 M HCl). This research reports for the first time the satisfactory reasons for using waterborne polymers as a promising kinetic/anti-agglomerant methane hydrate and corrosion inhibitors and will develop new opportunities in the field of hydrate and corrosion risk management.

水性聚合物作为动力学/抗凝聚剂甲烷水合物和腐蚀抑制剂：一种新的、有前途的流动保证策略

摘要 本研究介绍了一种基于水性聚合物的新颖且有前景的策略，用于水合物和腐蚀风险管理以及它们之间的不相容性问题。结果表明，与水相比，水性聚脲/聚氨酯 (WPUU) 在延迟诱导时间（高达 17 倍）和降低水合物生长速率（高达 7.7 倍）方面具有良好的性能。此外，WPUUs体系中含水率为60%时形成的水合物像浆液一样均匀分散在液相中，特别适用于管道中的流动。此外，重量损失、SEM-EDX、轮廓仪和量子化学研究表明，WPUUs 抑制了严重腐蚀环境（2 M HCl）中的腐蚀过程。
