Abstract—Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was modified by a aldol reaction with formaldehyde. The molar ratios of SDS to formaldehyde were 1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 3, and 1 : 4, the obtained products were named as HSDS(1 : 1), HSDS(1 : 2), HSDS(1 : 3), HSDS(1 : 4). The effects of reaction conditions (molar ratio) on surface properties were studied, including surface tension, foaming ability, high temperature resistance, methanol resistance and salt resistance. The research results obtained show that the best foaming concentration of the products with different molar ratio HSDS(1 : 1) to HSDS(1 : 4) is 0.4%. When the concentration of the surfactant solution is 0.4%, the half life time of the HSDS(1 : 1) reaches 7.71 min. Temperature, methanol and inorganic salts have great influence on the foaming ability of the products with different reaction conditions HSDS(1 : 1) to HSDS(1 : 4). In the presence of methanol and inorganic salts, the foam will disappear at an accelerated rate. But when the methanol concentration is less than 20%, the foam formed by SDS and HSDS(1 : 1) to HSDS(1 : 4) is HSDS(1 : 2) > SDS > HSDS(1 : 3) > HSDS(1 : 1) > HSDS(1 : 4). When the salinity reaches 200 g/L, the product with molar ratio of 1 : 4 (HSDS(1 : 4)) can still produce 350 mL foam, indicating that it has a certain salt resistance. When the concentration was 0.1 g/L, the emulsifying ability with different molar ratios is HSDS(1 : 3) > HSDS(1 : 4) > HSDS(1 : 2) > SDS > HSDS(1 : 1); when the concentration was 0.2 g/L, the emulsifying ability was HSDS(1 : 4) > HSDS(1 : 3) > HSDS(1 : 2) > SDS > HSDS(1 : 1). The emulsifying ability of SDS and the products obtained at different molar ratios is general, and the emulsion will stratify after 30 min, followed by foam, crude oil and water from top to bottom.

INTRODUCTION With the development of gas field entering the middle and late stage, the accumulation of fluid in the bottom hole of gas well is continuously accumulated, and drainage gas production becomes the key to the stable production of gas well [1]. Foam drainage gas recovery method is an effective drainage gas recovery measure widely used in low production liquid gas wells [2]. Surface active agent is
