Abstract: The increasing depth of coal mine construction has led to complex geological conditions involving high ground stress and elevated groundwater levels, presenting new challenges for water-sealing technologies in rock microfissure grouting. This study investigates ultrafine cement grouting in microfissures through systematic analysis of slurry properties and grouting simulations. Through systematic analysis of ultrafine cement grout performance across water–cement (W/C) ratios, this study establishes optimal injectable mix proportions. Through dedicated molds, sandstone-like microfissures with 0.2 mm apertures and controlled roughness (JRC = 0–2, 4–6, 10–12) were fabricated, and instrumented with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for real-time strain monitoring. Triaxial stress-permeation experiments under 6 and 7 MPa confining pressures quantify the coupled effects of fissure roughness, grouting pressure, and confining stress on volumetric flow rate and fissure deformation. Key findings include: (1) Slurry viscosity decreased monotonically with higher W/C ratios, while bleeding rate exhibited a proportional increase. At a W/C ratio = 1.6, the 2 h bleeding rate reached 7.8%, categorizing the slurry as unstable. (2) Experimental results demonstrate that increased surface roughness significantly enhances particle deposition–aggregation phenomena at grouting inlets, thereby reducing the success rate of grouting simulations. (3) The volumetric flow rate of ultrafine cement grout decreases with elevated roughness but increases proportionally with applied grouting pressure. (4) Under identical grouting pressure conditions, the relative variation in strain values among measurement points becomes more pronounced with increasing roughness of the specimen's microfissures. This research resolves critical challenges in material selection, injectability, and seepage–deformation mechanisms for microfissure grouting, establishing that the W/C ratio governs grout performance while surface roughness dictates grouting efficacy. These findings provide theoretical guidance for water-blocking grouting engineering in microfissures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
