Bai, S., Yang, Y., Wang, L., Yang, Z. and Lu, H. (2025) ‘On-Demand In Situ Proppant Generation via Temperature-Induced Solidification of Fracturing Fluid’, Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 64(51), pp. 24333–24345. Available at: https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.iecr.5c03553.
WHAT THE PAPER ESTABLISHES
The evidence contribution
Presents a recent temperature-triggered solidification system developed to address heterogeneous proppant placement and fracture-conductivity loss.
WHY IT MATTERS TO DISE
This is a timely direct comparator for reviewers. It reinforces the industrial relevance of on-demand proppant generation and provides a contemporary benchmark for transformation control, distribution and conductivity testing.
EVIDENCE BOUNDARY
What this reference does not prove
Temperature-induced solidification is not automatically equivalent to discrete intra-droplet polymerisation. DISE must still prove absence of a connected gel phase and retention of interstitial flow.
LABORATORY TRANSLATION
How it shapes the DISE programme
01
Compare induction and solidification profiles under matched thermal histories.
02
Quantify whether the product is discrete particles or a connected solid.
03
Use pressure-dependent conductivity as a release gate.
Evidence classification: literature precedent. This page explains relevance to DISE; it does not represent experimental validation of the integrated platform.
