A composition including a polyalphaolefin and at least one alfol alcohol that
function
as drag reducing agent slurries and a process for the preparation of the drag reducing
agent slurries are disclosed. The process includes contacting alpha olefin monomers
with a catalyst in a reactant mixture to form a polyalphaolefin. The polyalphaolefin
is combined with at least one alfol alcohol to form a drag reducing agent slurry.
A process for reducing drag in a conduit is also disclosed.
