Abstract

A composite for controlling the release of a well treatment agent or for inhibiting or preventing the formation of contaminants into a fluid or a surface within a reservoir contains a well treatment agent immobilized on a surface of the support or into the pores of a porous support. The composite is at least partially coated with an organic polymer or inorganic material. The composite exhibits sufficient strength for the composite to be used as a proppant or in conjunction with a proppant.
