Suspensions of elastomer particles for cement compositions and associated methods of cementing. An example method includes providing a suspension of elastomer particles. The suspension of elastomer particles includes elastomer particles, an aqueous fluid, a viscosifier, a surfactant, and a clay-based stabilizer. The suspension may be combined with a cement slurry to form a cement composition. The cement slurry includes a cement and a base fluid. The cement composition may be introduced into a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation. The cement composition may be allowed to set in the wellbore.

The effectiveness of expansive cement systems may be diluted when, during a well cementing operation, commingling takes place between the cement slurry and a spacer fluid, a drilling fluid, or both. Incorporating expansive agents in the spacer fluid or drilling fluid may reduce or negate the loss of expansion at the cement slurry/spacer interface or the cement slurry/drilling fluid interface, thereby promoting zonal isolation throughout the cemented interval.

The invention relates to a method for producing a solid construction material which is preferably substantially free of hydraulic binder, comprising the steps of: a. extracting a mineral fraction comprising argillaceous particles of a soil; b. optionally adjusting the particle size of the mineral fraction extracted, in particular in relation to its clay, sand, gravel or loam content, if necessary; c. preparing a first aqueous grout from at least one part of the mineral fraction extracted and optionally adjusted in terms of particle size; d. adding a dispersant that can disperse the argillaceous particles in the first grout in order to obtain a second aqueous grout, e. adding a coagulant that can promote the agglomeration of the argillaceous particles in the second grout in order to obtain an aqueous construction material grout; f introducing the construction material grout into a formwork; and g. allowing the evaporation of the water contained in the material grout in order to obtain a solid construction material.

A dispersant for premixed fluidized solidified soil includes the following raw materials in parts by weight: 5 parts to 15 parts of an anti-adhesion water reducer, 0.5 parts to 0.8 parts of a stabilizer, and 85 parts to 95 parts of water. The anti-adhesion water reducer is compounded by an inorganic dispersant and an aminosulfonic acid-based superplasticizer (ASP), and the inorganic dispersant is at least one selected from the group consisting of sodium silicate, sodium hexametaphosphate, and sodium pyrophosphate. In the present disclosure, on the premise of improving fluidity of mucky cohesive soil slurry, a strength of the fluidized solidified soil at each stage is adjusted through a water-reducing effect of the anti-adhesion water reducer. Moreover, rapid dispersion of the mucky cohesive soil slurry is realized, thus providing key technical support for preparation of the premixed fluidized solidified soil from undisturbed soil in non-dry conditions.
