Drilling muds commonly use organic polymers as viscosifiers or mud filtrate reducers. While these polymers are effective, they are also costly, contributing to higher operational expenses in oil well drilling. They play a crucial role in the success of drilling operations and help enhance various properties, particularly rheological characteristics. Due to environmental concerns, these polymers have become essential in water-based drilling fluids, serving as alternatives to oil-based muds. The present study aims t...

The work presented in this article is based on the formulation and research of the mechanical and thermal properties of self-compacting concretes (SCC) made from the cement industry waste. This waste is of high alumina, finely ground and incorporated as filler. Mechanical testing in compression and in tension by splitting has been performed and that in the compare to control concrete specimens. To examine the performance of our concrete at high temperatures we have introduced two sample a concrete witness and the ...
