The purpose of particle gel treatment is to reduce water flow through high permeable channels without damaging oil production zones. In this work, particle gels were synthesized from acrylamide and N, N’-methylenebisacrylamide as monomer and crosslinker, respectively. The effects of reactant concentrations on gelation time and gel fraction were investigated. The central composite method was applied for designing the experiments and to obtain the effective factors and to develop the mathematical models. Also an optimization analysis was performed to determine the optimum values of parameters to maximize the gel fraction and minimize the gelation time. The results showed that the monomer concentration effect on gelation time and gel fraction is more significant in comparison to the other reactant concentrations.
