A ceramic resin is provided, along with its methods of formation and use. The ceramic resin may include a crosslinkable precursor, a photoinitiator, ceramic particles, and pore forming particles. The ceramic resin may be utilized to form a ceramic casting element, such as via a method that includes forming a layer of the ceramic resin; applying light onto the ceramic resin such that the photoinitiator initiates polymerization of the crosslinkable precursor to form a crosslinked polymeric matrix setting the ceramic particles and the pore forming particles; and thereafter, heating the crosslinked polymeric matrix to a first temperature to burn out the pore forming particles.

A composite cementitious feedstock comprises discrete elements. Each discrete element includes mineral rock agglutinates having irregular surface regions and cavities. Super absorbent polymer (SAP) particles and cement particles are disposed on the irregular surface regions and in the cavities. A binder coheres the agglutinates, SAP particles, and cement particles.

Activating a reaction of a sealant, such as cement, with a fiber optic cable, the reaction causing hardening of the sealant. The sealant may be used in wellbore cementing operations to cement a casing in a wellbore. The fiber optic cable may be deployed by attaching it to the outside of a casing during insertion into the wellbore. The activation of the sealant can be via thermal or optical initiation in order to causing a hydration reaction or polymerization.

The invention relates to a method for producing a molded part from glass fiber and/or mineral fiber material with an inorganic binder. The inorganic binder is cured using electromagnetic radiation in order to form the molded part. The tool is designed to be at least partly permeable for the electromagnetic radiation for curing purposes, and the inorganic binder is a binder which can be cured by electromagnetic radiation. The invention further relates to a molded part which can be obtained in the aforementioned manner. Finally, the invention relates to a manufacturing unit for producing a molded part from glass fiber and/or mineral fiber material and an inorganic binder. The manufacturing unit comprises a device for providing a tool for forming the molded part, a device for introducing the glass fiber and/or mineral fiber material and the inorganic binder into the tool, a device for generating electromagnetic radiation to cure the inorganic binder in order to form a molded part, and optionally a device for removing the molded part from the tool.

A system for cementing a wellbore penetrating an earth formation into which a pipe extends. A cement material is positioned in the space between the wellbore and the pipe by circulated capsules containing the cement material through the pipe into the space between the wellbore and the pipe. The capsules contain the cementing material encapsulated in a shell. The capsules are added to a fluid and the fluid with capsules is circulated through the pipe into the space between the wellbore and the pipe. The shell is breached once the capsules contain the cementing material are in position in the space between the wellbore and the pipe.
