- optionally one or more additives selected from:
- a strength enhancer, wherein the strength enhancer is selected from amino phenols, 5-hydroxytryptamine, diaminobiphenols, tridimethylaminomethyl phenol, or a combination thereof,
- a solvent,
- a foaming agent,
- a surfactant,
- a gelling agent,
- proppant particulates,
- a breaker, or
- a buffer;
- introducing the treatment fluid into the formation;
- and
- curing the treatment fluid to at least partially consolidate unconsolidated particulates in the formation.
