Emulsified Acid Technology (EAT) is designed for use in carbonate acidizing and acid fracturing. It is an oil-external emulsion formed with a 70:30 hydrochloric acid-to-oil ratio, stabilized with an emulsifier JKN-AEM. EAT emulsion retards the acid reaction rate of 28% HCl approximately 10-15-fold. Even greater retardation (up to 40-fold) is achieved at lower acid concentrations.
