A flexible cement stable at high temperatures contains an extender that is a finely ground polyetheretherketone. The cement retains its flexibility for long times at high temperatures, for example those used for steam assisted gravity drainage of heavy oil formations, for example from about 480 to about 644° F. (249 to 340° C.). Compressive strength, tensile strength, permeability and porosity are all stable and suitable for high temperature down-hole oilfield use. |

A coating for waterproofing and sealing a rigid structural unit using a styrene polymeric film cast from an organic solvent is disclosed. The coating is easily maintained as damaged areas and imperfections can be repaired by simply applying additional liquid composition to the damaged area, and the liquid composition remelts the existing film allowing the newly formed film to be continuous. In addition, the composition can be applied to structural units in sub-freezing temperatures or to wet surfaces. Methods relating to the use of the liquid coating composition are also disclosed. |

Compositions and methods relating to cementitious compositions are provided. The use of a blend of a rosin and a tannin to entrain air into cementitious compositions is provided. A blend of a rosin and a tannin in a weight ratio of about 1:1.22 to about 1:1.86 are added to a wet cementitious composition at levels of less than 1% by weight based on the weight of the cement and air is mixed into the cement. The resulting cement will contain, e.g. 5% to 10% by volume air which improves the resistance of the set cement to freeze damage. Also provided is a method of entraining air into a cementitious composition which employs such a blend. |

A weather resistant soil cement with an open pore structure for resisting freeze-thaw damage is formed of cement, fly ash, Free aggregates, water, and an aqueous foamed surfactant, and other application specific additives. The material is uniquely suited for using indigenous soils, mill tailings, or granular waste products as the aggregate component of the mixture, although commercially produced aggregates may be used depending on economics and availability. Due to its low density and flowable nature, it can be pumped or placed by gravity and without compaction. The resulting product is a low density material with construction and mining applications, that is suited for use as a fill or mad base. Specific product formulations are easily designed to permit removal at local sites with conventional excavating equipment. |

Salt damage to concrete structures as a result of contact with dry salt, sea water or like salt environments can be avoided in the case of new structures and repaired in the case of damaged structures by applying a layer of slag cement concrete to the structures. The ability of slag cement to absorb chlorides and to delay chloride penetration greatly lengthens the time required to initiate corrosion of the reinforcing irons by the chlorides present and to reduce the effect of chlorides in conjunction with frost. The slag cement-concrete also has a leaching effect on chloride-infected structures and in the case, for example, of an old bridge pier having applied thereto a layer of slag cement-concrete the carbonation front is halted and a new front is formed in the protective layer. The chloride profile extending through the pier is also changed as a result of chloride irons diffusing out from the infected concrete and being neutralized in the protective layer. The slag cement can also be applied to form a salt-frost resistant layer by spray casting techniques, this being difficult to achieve with conventional shotcrete base on other types of cements. |

The drilling fluid contains or is adjusted to contain from about 2 to about 16 volume percent solids. Mixing with the drilling fluid (1) an additive selected from the group consisting of lignosulfonate, lignite, tannin, and mixtures thereof, (2) sufficient base to raise the pH of the drilling fluid into the range of from about 9 to about 12, and (3) cementitious material which will harden in from about 30 to about 40 hours at 40.degree. F. The resulting mixture is pumped into the permafrost region of a wellbore to be cemented and allowed to harden in the wellbore. There is also provided a process for treating an aqueous drilling fluid after it has been used in drilling the wellbore in permafrost, and a cementitious composition for cementing in a permafrost region of a wellbore. |
