Experimental Study on Fracability and Fracture Modes of High Permeability Sandstone

An experimental study has been made of the adsorption of gelatin from solution at 37°C. by collodion membranes. In the case of membranes of high permeability, very high concentrations of gelatin were required to produce maximum adsorption, and the maximum amounts adsorbed were independent of the pH values of the solutions over the range 3.8 to 4.8. With membranes of low permeability, maximum adsorption was reached at lower gelatin concentrations, and the maximum amounts adsorbed varied with the pH, being lower on either side of the isoelectric point, over the range 3.8 to 6.6. The addition of salt in such experiments raised the maximum amount adsorbed to a value equal to that obtained with solutions at the isoelectric point in the absence of salt. These experiments can be explained by, and seem to lend support to, the theory proposed by Loeb and further developed by Kunitz concerning the effects of pH and salt on the size of gelatin particles in solution.

Illumination Mode

The tilted beam illumination method is used to improve the resolution comparing with the axial illumination mode. Using this advantage, a restoration method of several tilted beam images covering the full azimuthal range was proposed by Saxton, and experimentally examined. To make this technique more reliable it seems that some practical problems still remain. In this report the restoration was attempted and the problems were considered. In our study, four problems were pointed out for the experiment of the restoration. (1) Accurate beam tilt adjustment to fit the incident beam to the coma-free axis for the symmetrical beam tilting over the full azimuthal range. (2) Accurate measurements of the optical parameters which are necessary to design the restoration filter. Even if the spherical aberration coefficient Cs is known with accuracy and the axial astigmatism is sufficiently compensated, at least the defocus value must be measured. (3) Accurate alignment of the tilt-azimuth series images.
