Zusammenfassung:Methods that include a method comprising providing a hydrocarbon-acid emulsion composition that comprises an acid phase, a hydrocarbon blend phase, and an emulsifying agent; and placing the hydrocarbon-acid emulsion composition in a subterranean formation. In some embodiments, the hydrocarbon blend phase comprises at least about 65% hydrocarbons having from six carbons (C6) through eleven carbons (C11). In other embodiments, the hydrocarbon blend phase has a flash point greater than about 100° F. Additional methods are also provided.
