Material design for the encapsulation of additives and release

Embodiments provide a method for controlled release of a cement additive for use in a wellbore. The method includes the steps of mixing an aramide capsule with a cement slurry to form an additive-containing slurry, and introducing the additive-containing slurry into the wellbore. The aramide capsule...

Summary:Embodiments provide a method for controlled release of a cement additive for use in a wellbore. The method includes the steps of mixing an aramide capsule with a cement slurry to form an additive-containing slurry, and introducing the additive-containing slurry into the wellbore. The aramide capsule is formed by interfacial polymerization where an aramide polymer forms a semi-permeable membrane encapsulating the cement additive.
