New amino acids are used to create water-soluble polymers that can withstand high temperatures or contemporary applications that require significant thermal stability after processing under difficult conditions, the heat resistance of conventional soluble polymers is still insufficient. On the other side, plastics with very high heat stability, such polyamides, have little water solubility. The goal of the research work was to show how a molecular building block may be created in a novel way for plastic engineering that induces high water solubility in polyimides without damaging the backbone. According to the results of the tests, polyamides with extraordinarily high water solubility are created, and processed polymers have outstanding thermo mechanical and optical characteristics.\
These materials are soil type-specific, thus a contractor cannot purchase in bulk for various sites or use leftover material at another site. It requires site-specific testing before use, which might take many days to finish. Increased usage may choke soils, reducing infiltration. When applied on pure sand or gravel that doesn't include any fine silts or clays, as well as when placed on top of snow, it is ineffective. Neither is permitted to neither enter a water body nor be applied directly to water. Although it works when applied to wet soil, it is less effective when applied to dry or moist soil. Different water soluble polymers have different levels of toxicity and carcinogenicity. Only the water soluble polymer goods that are the safest for the environment should be utilised. Hence, all the above factors hinder the growth of the market.
In the oil and gas business, especially in the upstream and midstream sectors, water-soluble polymers are widely used. It is employed in drilling, well completion, cementing, the production of oil and gas wells, the use of diverting agents, well stimulation, the management of deposit formation, and the treatment of oil and oil-contaminated systems. Oil companies mainly rely on chemically enhanced oil recovery and hydraulic fracturing processes to reach maximum production levels and meet escalating energy demand. Clay anti-swelling agent, fluid-loss control agent for mud, rheology modifier, solid suspending agent, and high temperature/pressure applications are just a few of the uses for these polymers in good drilling which drives the growth of the market.
High molecular weight polyacrylamide is frequently used as a flocculant in the treatment of wastewater and as a viscosity modifier in improved oil recovery. Overuse and poor management might contaminate the area's water supplies, harming the flora and animals of the area. High molecular weight polymers are also less damaging to the environment. However, during the process, these polymers are subjected to a particularly severe mechanical, chemical, and thermal environment. Due to this reason, high molecular weight materials deteriorate and disintegrate, changing their physical and chemical properties and impeding total market growth.
The growth and supply chain disruptions of various end-use sectors have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic.
