Gas drainage materials are one critical aspect of preventing coal mine gas explosions. Here, a novel dual-liquid gas sealing material was developed to improve gas extraction. The mechanical properties and hydration mechanism of the proposed material were determined. The novel dual-liquid gas sealing material’s performance was verified experimentally and with field testing, with practical application explored in the YunGaiShan 2 coal mine. The results showed that the main factor responsible for gas drainage leakage was the poor sealing effect of the sealing materials on the cracks around the borehole. The novel dual-liquid gas sealing material reduced damage to the rock surrounding the borehole and significantly improved the gas drainage performance. The initial and final setting times of the novel dual-liquid material were shown to be controllable, and the slurry exhibited good fluidity, with a 28-day uniaxial compressive strength of 11.06 MPa. The analysis of the microscopic hydration mechanism showed that the production of ettringite (AFt) in the dual-liquid material increased significantly, forming a denser network interlace that functioned as a network skeleton, improving the compressive strength of the material and achieving the characteristics of plastic deformation. Field-based analysis was performed to verify the practical applicability of the proposed material, showing that the gas drainage concentration increased by 200.5% compared to the original sealing material. Moreover, the average gas drainage negative pressure increased from 7.8 kPa (using the conventional sealing technique) to 16.6 kPa using the proposed material. Overall, the proposed materials are suitable for sealing materials for effective gas drainage performance and can help control gas disasters.</div
