This work used aqueous solution free radical polymerization to create polymers of 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid, itaconic acid, and allyl polyoxyethylene ether as a high-temperature resistant retarder (APMS/IA/APEG, from now on referred to as AIA). Gel permeation chromatography, fourier transform infrared (FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 HNMR), and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TG) were used to characterize their molecular structure and characteristics. Tests were conducted on the thickening time, rheological characteristics, and compressive strength of AIA in cement slurries. The cement slurry thickened for 276 min at 180°C during the test, and the cement stone's 24-h compressive strength was consistently more than 20 MPa. The hydration products were analyzed using x-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscopy methods, which were then coupled with molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate the AIA retarding mechanism. When AIA is added to a cement slurry, it forms a chelate structure with Ca 2+ and a strong adsorption layer on the surfaces of the cement particles. This stops the cement from hydrating. The AIA side chain, APEG, can wrap the active group in AIA at low temperatures. AIA exposes more adsorption groups because of the APEG chains stretching at higher temperatures. AIA can, therefore, be used for deep well operations at high temperatures.
High-temperature heat flux sensors play a pivotal role in detecting the dynamic heat exchange processes of heating and cooling, in high-temperature environments. However, the detection of surface heat flux on curved parts operating at high temperatures remains a formidable challenge. Flexible thin-film heat flux sensors, while offering benefits such as conformal adhesion and excellent portability, are typically limited by low operational temperatures and narrow measurement ranges. This work proposes a high-temperature flexible heat flux sensor based on multi-layered high-temperature resistant ceramics nanofibre membranes that one layer worked as a substrate and the other two work as thermal resistance layers, and direct ink writing platinum sensitive elements with Wheatstone Bridge configuration. The prototype sensor is capable of quantifying heat flux reaching 1330 kW/m 2 and withstands temperature as high as 1200 °C. The sensor is bendable with resistance change only about 0.5 % even when the bending radius was larger than 10 mm. These extraordinary characteristics indicate that such methodology will offer a new way for the development of high-temperature thin-film flexible heat flux sensors, demonstrating considerable potential for applications in high-temperature environments.
