[0045] The preparation method of the self-repairing micro latex is as follows:
[0046] N,N-dimethyl acrylamide, methacryloyl ethyl sulfobetaine and lauryl acrylate (mass ratio 1:0.15:0.02) are dissolved in deionized water at a mass ratio of 1:5, and 4% of the total mass of the monomers is sodium dodecyl sulfate, which is emulsified at a high shear speed of 8000 rpm for 20 min to form a pre-emulsion;
[0047] One-third of the pre-emulsion is added to a reaction kettle, and potassium persulfate (solid) is added in an amount of 0.4% of the total mass of the monomers, and is prepared into a 0.5 mol / L aqueous solution for use, and the pH is adjusted to 7.0 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide, and nitrogen is filled for 30 min, and then the temperature is raised to 65℃, and reacted for 45 min; the remaining two-thirds of the pre-emulsion is added dropwise through a constant-pressure dropping funnel within 3 h, and 0.2% of the total mass of the monomers of 0.5 mol / L potassium persulfate solution is added dropwise synchronously; after the dropwise addition is completed, the temperature is raised to 70℃ and reacted for 2 h to obtain the emulsion;
[0048] After the reaction is completed, the temperature is lowered to below 40℃, and 0.1% of the total mass of the emulsion of Span 80 and 0.05% of sodium benzoate are added, and the pH of the emulsion is adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; concentrated to a solid content of 30% by vacuum distillation to obtain the self-repairing micro latex.
[0049] The preparation method of the nano-silica stabilizer is as follows:
[0050] Nano-silica is dispersed in deionized water, ultrasonically dispersed at a power of 200 W for 30 min, and the pH is adjusted to 5 with 0.01 mol / L acetic acid to obtain a nano-silica dispersion liquid with a solid content of 5%;
[0051] 3-methacryloyl propyl trimethoxysilane (mass ratio 1:0.06) is added to the nano-silica dispersion liquid, stirred at a speed of 400 rpm for 60 min, and then the temperature is raised to 70℃ and reacted for 2 h; after cooling, filter and wash with deionized water until neutral to obtain 3-methacryloyl propyl trimethoxysilane-nano-silica;
[0052] The 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane-nanosilica is re-dispersed in deionized water to obtain a dispersion with a solid content of 5%; 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid is added to the dispersion (mass ratio of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid to nanosilica is 1:0.3), and 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide is used to adjust the pH to 7; nitrogen is introduced, and the temperature is raised to 50-70°C; 0.5% of ammonium persulfate based on the mass of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid is added, and the reaction is carried out for 4 h;
[0053] After the reaction is completed, the temperature is cooled, sodium bisulfite is added in a molar ratio of 1:1 to ammonium persulfate, and then the reaction solution is washed, the pH is adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide, and then spray drying is carried out, with an inlet temperature of 160°C and an outlet temperature of 80°C, to obtain a nanosilica stabilizer.
[0054] Example 2: Compared with Example 1, the difference is that the mass ratio of nanosilica to 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane is 1:0.09.
[0055] Example 3: Compared with Example 1, the difference is that the mass ratio of nanosilica to 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane is 1:0.12.
[0056] Example 4: Compared with Example 1, the difference is that the mass ratio of nanosilica to 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid is 1:0.9.
[0057] Example 5: Compared with Example 1, the difference is that the mass ratio of nanosilica to 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid is 1:1.5.
[0058] Determination of grafting rate: a small amount of dried nanosilica stabilizer powder (about 5-10 mg) is placed in a platinum crucible in a TGA instrument; under a nitrogen atmosphere, the temperature is raised at a certain rate (such as 10°C / min) from room temperature to 800°C, and the weight change curve with temperature is recorded; the weight loss between 300-600°C mainly corresponds to the decomposition of the surface grafted organic polymer (PAMPS); the grafting rate = (weight loss percentage of the modified sample at 300-600°C - weight loss percentage of the raw material in the same temperature interval) X 100%.
[0059] Determination of dispersion stability: a certain amount (such as 0.5 g) of nanosilica stabilizer is dispersed in 100 mL of deionized water or simulated cement slurry filtrate (containing Ca 2+ 、 The uniform dispersion is obtained after ultrasonic treatment; the dispersion is transferred to a graduated cylinder with a stopper, and is left to stand at a constant temperature (e.g. 25°C and 90°C); the change in the height of the dispersion and the volume of the sediment at the bottom are observed and recorded regularly; the time required for the sediment to reach half the volume (half-settling time) is recorded as a quantitative index.
[0060] Measurement of suspension capacity: the nano-silica stabilizer is added to the oil well cement slurry formulation according to the design, and the cement slurry is prepared by stirring under high temperature and high pressure (e.g. 150°C, 100MPa); the cement slurry is poured into a sedimentation stability tester and placed in a high-temperature curing oven in the vertical direction for a certain period of time (e.g. 2 hours); after the curing is completed, the cylinder is quickly cooled, and the slurry at the top and the bottom is separated; the densities of the slurry at the top and the bottom are measured respectively, and the density difference (Δρ) between the top and the bottom is the sedimentation stability index.
[0061] Table 1 Performance data of nano-silica stabilizers

[0063] Comparing Examples 1, 2 and 3, the grafting rate and various performances first increase and then decrease with the increase of the amount of silane.
[0064] The performance of Example 2 (1:0.09) is better, and the silane coupling agent provides the most suitable active double bond site density, so that the subsequent AMPS polymerization reaction has the highest efficiency, and a dense polymer shell is formed, thereby significantly improving the dispersibility and suspension capacity.
[0065] The performance of Example 3 (1:0.12) decreases instead, because the excessive silane not only cannot provide more effective sites, but also forms multiple layers of coverage on the surface of the nano particles and even homopolymerization occurs, resulting in increased hydrophobicity of the particle surface and easier aggregation, thereby affecting the grafting efficiency and the dispersibility of the final product.
[0066] Comparing Examples 1, 4 and 5, the grafting rate, dispersion stability and suspension capacity are continuously and significantly improved with the increase of the amount of AMPS.
[0067] AMPS is a key monomer that provides steric hindrance and electrostatic repulsion (sulfonic acid group), and increasing its amount directly leads to the formation of a thicker and denser polymer hydration layer on the surface of the nano particles.
[0068] This greatly enhances the repulsion between particles, so the dispersion stability time is greatly extended.
[0069] A thicker polymer layer can form a stronger three-dimensional network structure in the cement slurry, thereby firmly fixing the cement particles, so the suspension capacity is better (Example 5).
[0070] Embodiment 6: A method for preparing a high-temperature-resistant suspension stabilizer for oil well cement, comprising the following steps:
[0071] S1.1, weigh the following raw materials: 60 parts by weight of nano-silica stabilizer, 30 parts by weight of self-repairing micro-latex, 15 parts by weight of sulfonated acetone-formaldehyde condensate, 8 parts by weight of sorbitol, and 40 parts by weight of fly ash;

[0077] The preparation method of the self-repairing micro-latex is as follows:
[0078] Dissolve N,N-dimethyl acrylamide, methacryloyl ethyl sulfobetaine, and lauryl acrylate (mass ratio 1:0.15:0.02) in deionized water according to a mass ratio of 1:5, and 5% of the total monomer mass of sodium dodecyl sulfate, emulsify at a high speed of 8000 rpm for 20 min to form a pre-emulsion;
[0079] Add one-third of the pre-emulsion to a reaction kettle, add potassium persulfate (solid basis), the amount is 0.8% of the total monomer mass, and prepare a 0.5 mol / L aqueous solution, adjust the pH to 7.0 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide, and fill with nitrogen for 30 min, then heat to 65℃ and react for 45 min; add the remaining two-thirds of the pre-emulsion through a constant-pressure dropping funnel within 3 h, and synchronously add 0.5 mol / L potassium persulfate solution accounting for 0.4% of the total monomer mass; after the addition is completed, heat to 75℃ and keep for 2 h to obtain an emulsion;
[0080] After the reaction, the temperature was lowered to below 40℃, 0.3% Span 80 and 0.1% sodium benzoate were added based on the total mass of the emulsion, and the pH of the emulsion was adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; concentrated to a solid content of 40% by vacuum distillation to obtain a self-repairing micro latex.
[0081] The preparation method of the nano-silica stabilizer is as follows:
[0082] The nano-silica was dispersed in deionized water, ultrasonically dispersed at a power of 200W for 30min, and the pH was adjusted to 5 with 0.01mol / L acetic acid to obtain a nano-silica dispersion with a solid content of 10%;
[0083] 3-methacryloyloxypropyl trimethoxysilane-nano-silica was obtained by adding 3-methacryloyloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (mass ratio of 1:0.09) to the nano-silica dispersion, stirring at a speed of 400rpm for 60min, and then heating to 70℃ and continuing to react for 2h; after cooling, it was filtered and washed with deionized water until neutral to obtain 3-methacryloyloxypropyl trimethoxysilane-nano-silica;
[0084] The 3-methacryloyloxypropyl trimethoxysilane-nano-silica was redispersed in deionized water to obtain a dispersion with a solid content of 15%; 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid was added to the dispersion (mass ratio of 1:0.9 with respect to nano-silica), and the pH was adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; nitrogen was introduced, the temperature was raised to 50-70℃, and 0.5% ammonium persulfate based on the mass of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid was added, and the reaction was carried out for 4h;

[0089] Self-healing and rheological property measurement: add micro-latex into cement slurry with a certain amount (e.g. 2% BWOC), stir well; use a rheometer to test at high temperature (e.g. 90℃): recovery test: first apply a low shear rate (1 s -1 ) to measure the initial viscosity; then switch to a high shear rate (500 s -1 ) to simulate pumping shear for 1-2 min; then switch back to the low shear rate (1 s -1 ) to observe the viscosity recovery curve over time.
[0090] Table 2 Performance data of self-healing micro-latex
[0091]
[0092] The centrifugal stability of Examples 6, 7 and 8 is good, but the calcium ion stability is significantly improved with the increase of SBMA proportion.
[0093] The SBMA proportion of Example 6 is low (0.15), and the zwitterionic counterion effect is not enough to completely resist the charge shielding and bridging effect of high concentration Ca 2+ , so there is slight flocculation; the SBMA proportion of Examples 7 and 8 is higher, providing stronger hydration layer and electrostatic repulsion, so as to effectively resist the damage of Ca 2+ and keep the emulsion stable.
[0094] The rheological property is not linearly improved with the increase of SBMA content, but there is an optimal value (Example 7), and both the viscosity recovery rate and the final viscosity are higher.
[0095] The SBMA content in Example 6 is insufficient, and the salt calcium resistance and temperature resistance are slightly weak. The network structure strength itself is weak in high salt and high temperature environment, so the final viscosity after recovery is the lowest.
[0096] The SBMA proportion in Example 7 is just right, which provides excellent salt calcium resistance and forms an ideal network structure with hydrophobic monomer (LA) that is both rigid and flexible; the hydrophobic association points can be efficiently rearranged and combined after shearing, and the strong hydration sheath protects the network from being damaged by high temperature and high salt, so it shows the fastest recovery rate and the strongest final network strength (recovery rate 96%, viscosity 185 mPa·s).
[0097] The too high SBMA content in Example 8 leads to too hydrophilic polymer chains or changes the flexibility of molecular chains, which to some extent weakens the strength of hydrophobic association; although its initial stability is good, the dynamic reversible association network performance is actually decreased.
[0098] Embodiment 9: A method for preparing a high-temperature-resistant suspension stabilizer for oil well cement, comprising the following steps:
[0099] S1.1, weigh the following raw materials: 30 parts by weight of nano-silica stabilizer, 10 parts by weight of self-repairing micro-latex, 10 parts by weight of sulfonated acetone-formaldehyde condensate, 5 parts by weight of sorbitol, and 30 parts by weight of fly ash;
[0100] S1.2, in a high-speed mixer, add fly ash and nano-silica stabilizer, dry mix at a speed of 400 rpm for 20 min to obtain a master batch base powder;
[0101] In a premixing tank, add self-repairing micro-latex and sorbitol, stir at a speed of 400 rpm for 15 min to form a liquid phase premix;
[0102] S1.3, add the master batch base powder into a high-speed shearing granulator, spray the liquid phase premix onto the base powder through a spraying device at a shearing speed of 1200 rpm and a stirring speed of 200 rpm, the atomizing pressure is 0.4 MPa, and the liquid flow rate is 200 mL / min;
[0103] After spraying is completed, keep shearing mixing for 5 min, then adjust the speed to 500 rpm, add sulfonated acetone-formaldehyde condensate and continue mixing for 20 min to obtain a material;
[0104] S1.4, transfer the material to a double-cone mixer and homogenize at a speed of 30 rpm for 30 min; pass the homogenized material through a 100-mesh vibrating screen to obtain a high-temperature-resistant suspension stabilizer for oil well cement.
[0105] The preparation method of the self-repairing micro-latex is as follows:
[0106] Dissolve N,N-dimethyl acrylamide, methacryloyl ethyl sulfobetaine, and lauryl acrylate (mass ratio 1:0.22:0.02) in deionized water according to a mass ratio of 1:5, and 4% of the total monomer mass of sodium dodecyl sulfate, emulsify at a high speed of 8000 rpm for 20 min to form a pre-emulsion;
[0107] Add one-third of the pre-emulsion to a reaction kettle, add potassium persulfate (solid basis), the amount is 0.6% of the total monomer mass, and prepare a 0.5 mol / L aqueous solution, adjust the pH to 7.0 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide, and fill with nitrogen for 30 min, then heat to 65℃ and react for 45 min; add the remaining two-thirds of the pre-emulsion through a constant-pressure dropping funnel within 3 h, and synchronously add 0.5 mol / L potassium persulfate solution accounting for 0.3% of the total monomer mass; after the addition is completed, heat to 75℃ and react for 2 h to obtain an emulsion;
[0108] After the reaction is completed, the temperature is lowered to below 40℃, 0.2% of Span 80 and 0.05% of sodium benzoate are added based on the total mass of the emulsion, and the pH of the emulsion is adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; concentrated to a solid content of 30% by vacuum distillation to obtain a self-repairing micro latex.
[0109] The preparation method of the nano-silica stabilizer is as follows:
[0110] The nano-silica is dispersed in deionized water, ultrasonically dispersed at a power of 200W for 30min, and the pH is adjusted to 5 with 0.01 mol / L acetic acid to obtain a nano-silica dispersion with a solid content of 7%;
[0111] 3-methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane-nano-silica is obtained by adding 3-methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (mass ratio of 1:0.09) to the nano-silica dispersion, stirring at a speed of 400 rpm for 60 min, and then heating to 70℃ and continuing to react for 2h; after cooling, it is filtered and washed with deionized water until neutral.
[0112] The 3-methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane-nano-silica is redispersed in deionized water to obtain a dispersion with a solid content of 10%; 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid (mass ratio of 1:0.9) is added to the dispersion, and the pH is adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; nitrogen is introduced, the temperature is raised to 70℃, 1.5% of ammonium persulfate based on the mass of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid is added, and the reaction is carried out for 4h.
[0113] After the reaction is completed, the temperature is lowered to below 40℃, 0.2% of Span 80 and 0.05% of sodium benzoate are added based on the total mass of the emulsion, and the pH of the emulsion is adjusted to 7 with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide; concentrated to a solid content of 30% by vacuum distillation to obtain a self-repairing micro latex.
[0114] Example 10: Compared with Example 9, the difference is that the nano-silica stabilizer 45 parts by weight.
[0115] Example 11: Compared with Example 9, the difference is that the nano-silica stabilizer 60 parts by weight.
[0116] Example 12: Compared with Example 9, the difference is that the self-repairing micro latex 20 parts by weight.
[0117] Example 13: Compared with Example 9, the difference is that the self-repairing micro latex 30 parts by weight.
[0118] Settling stability test: Add the stabilizer at the recommended dosage (e.g. 1.5% BWOC) into G-class oil well cement, and prepare the cement paste according to the standard procedure; pour the cement paste into the settling stability test cylinder of the high temperature and high pressure curing oven, and cure at the target bottom hole temperature (e.g. 150°C or 180°C) and pressure for a certain period of time (usually 2 hours); after the curing, quickly cool down, and carefully separate the paste at the top and bottom of the settling cylinder; measure the density of the paste at the top and bottom, respectively, and the density difference Δρ = |ρbottom - ptop|.
[0119] Rheology and shear thinning test: After the prepared cement paste is cured at room temperature or at high temperature, place it in the constant pressure consistometer or rotary viscometer, and read the values at different rotational speeds (e.g. 3, 6, 100, 200, 300 rpm) from low to high, and calculate the corresponding shear stress and apparent viscosity.
[0120] Dissolution and dispersion test: Under stirring, quickly add 14 g of the sample (simulating the field paste preparation condition, 40 g of cement / 350 mL of water, and the stabilizer dosage is 1.5%) into a measuring cup containing 350 mL of tap water at room temperature, and start timing at the same time, and observe the time when the particles disappear and the solution becomes uniform.
[0121] Table 3 Performance data of high temperature resistant suspending stabilizer for oil well cement
[0122]
[0123] Comparative Examples 9, 10, and 11, with the increase of the amount of nano The settling stability is significantly improved (Δρ decreases from 0.022 to 0.011), but the rheological recovery rate decreases (from 82% to 70%), and the dissolution time is prolonged (from 75 seconds to more than 120 seconds).
[0124] The nano The core that provides the rigid three-dimensional network skeleton, the amount of increase directly enhances the ability to support and suspend the cement particles, so that Δρ becomes smaller.
[0125] Excessive rigid nanoparticles will interfere and destroy the flexible reversible network structure formed by the self-repairing micro-latex through hydrophobic association to a certain extent, so that the efficiency of rebuilding the network after shearing is reduced.
[0126] The nano The stabilizer itself has a slow dissolution and dispersion speed, and is more likely to absorb water and form clumps at high dosage, resulting in a significant extension of the time required for complete dissolution.
[0127] Comparing Examples 9, 12, 13, with the increase of self-healing micro-latex, the rheology recovery rate increased significantly (from 82% to 98%), and the sedimentation stability also improved (the Δρ decreased from 0.022 to 0.016), but the dissolution time increased slightly (from 75 seconds to 105 seconds).
[0128] The increase of the amount of self-healing micro-latex means that the density of reversible physical cross-linking points in the system increases, and the speed and ability of network reconstruction are stronger.
[0129] The stronger and more easily recovered network structure also helps static suspension, so the Δρ decreases.
[0130] The hydrophobic components and polymer chains in the micro-latex need more time to hydrate and stretch, so the increase of the amount will cause the dissolution time to become longer, but the dissolution time of all examples is within the acceptable range (< 120 seconds).
[0131] After the above determination, Example 10 is selected as the optimal example.
[0132] Comparative Example 1: Compared with Example 10, the difference is that no nano-silica stabilizer is added, and silica is directly added.
[0133] Comparative Example 2: Compared with Example 10, the difference is that no self-healing micro-latex is added.
[0134] Comparative Example 3: Compared with Example 10, the difference is that 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid is not added in the nano-silica stabilizer.
[0135] Table 4 Performance data of high-temperature resistant suspension stabilizer for oil well cement
[0136]
[0137] Comparative Example 1 uses unmodified nano , the sedimentation stability is very poor (Δρ = 0.038), and the solubility is extremely deteriorated (> 300 seconds).
[0138] Unmodified nano The surface energy is very high, and strong agglomeration forms hard agglomerates that cannot be dispersed. These agglomerates cannot form a uniform three-dimensional network in the cement slurry, but instead settle quickly as heavy particles, leading to suspension failure.
[0139] Comparative Example 2 does not add self-healing micro-latex, and the rheology recovery rate drops to 35%, and the sedimentation stability also decreases significantly (Δρ = 0.028).
[0140] The absence of self-healing micro-latex means the loss of reversible hydrophobic association network; the system relies solely on nano The rigid network support is destroyed irreversibly after high speed shearing, and cannot be recovered, so the viscosity recovery rate is very low; at the same time, the static sedimentation stability is also poor due to the lack of the synergistic suspension effect of the flexible network.
[0141] Comparative Example 3 Nanometer No AMPS grafted, sedimentation stability unqualified (Δρ = 0.031), poor solubility (180 seconds).
[0142] Although the hydrophobic modification is carried out using a silane coupling agent, the AMPS polymer chain is not grafted, and the product cannot effectively prevent the agglomeration of the nanoparticles in a high-salt environment, the strong electrostatic repulsion provided by the sulfonate is also lacking, and the particles are prone to aggregation; this leads to poor dispersibility of the product in water, especially in a salt-containing water slurry filtrate, and the particles are prone to aggregation and precipitation, resulting in suspension failure, and the dissolution speed is also slow.
[0143] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present application. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited by the above examples, and the above examples and descriptions in the specification are only preferred examples of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the claimed present application.
