In order to study the mechanism of salt-bearing polymer flooding, using micro-flow technology, experimental study of salt-bearing polymer flooding residual oil process was carried outin two microscopic models of hydrophilic and lipophilic formation.Its microscopic percolation mechanism wasinspected. In hydrophilic model, after injecting salt-bearing polymer residual oil is capturedand migrated, and there is residual oil drawinganddeformation phenomena which is consistent with common polymer; while flooding process due to larger viscoelasticity of salt-bearing polymer, normal stress is generated in the flow, so the cutting action of the residual oil is obvious. In lipophilic model, after injecting salt-bearing polymer, residual oil migration, the film gathering,interface transport, a bridge and drawing phenomenon happened which is consistent with common polymer; polymer difference between salt-bearing polymer andcommon polymeris that from the ordinary and the residual oil film formed by common polymer is flexible and easier to form "emulsion.
