This research on the synthesis of composite materials based on heavy oil residues possesses scientific novelty in several aspects. In the contemporary stage of industrial development, the increasing waste load of the oil refining industry, along with the growing demand for high-performance and durable materials, necessitates new approaches for scientific and technological advancement. For the first time, polymer composites have been developed based on petroleum porphyrins isolated from asphaltene–resin–paraffin residues. A new synthesis method for polymer composite materials based on petroleum porphyrins isolated from the asphaltene–resin–paraffin residues of the Buzovna field has been proposed. This approach contributes to solving the environmental problem associated with the utilization of heavy oil residues. The observed spectroscopic changes can be explained by the fact that the immobilization of the porphyrin occurs through the formation of ionic bonds between the functional groups of the porphyrin and the positively charged nitrogen atoms of chitosan, resulting in the formation of an insoluble polyelectrolyte complex. Thus, the results indicate that only chitosan effectively binds to the porphyrin, whereas methylcellulose remains inert. Keywords: composite material, oil residues, chitosan, methylcellulose, biocompatible polymer.
