Portland cement is the predominant material for permanent abandonment of oil and gas wells. However, resins are increasingly finding applications in the mix of barrier materials for plug and abandonment of wells because of unique features that enable...

The addition of stiff nanoparticles to a polymer matrix usually proves beneficial for the enhancement in stiffness and strength, however, the impact strength is usually lowered. Conversely, the use of elastomeric additives can enhance the toughness a...
