Surface modification of nanoclay by using silane coupling agent according to ethanol solution method was used to enhance the adhesion between nanoclay and polyacrylamide. Nanocomposites of polyacrylamide were prepared according to solution method. The different between water and polymer flooding were determined via flooding test. The contrast between polymer solution and nanocomposites polymer solution of polyacrylamide were studied by using viscosity yield test.
