Elevated in situ stress and geothermal temperature in deep roadways further accelerate deterioration and increase the risk of engineering instability. In this study, sandstone, a common coal-seam roof rock, was selected as the test material. Immersion and uniaxial compression tests were conducted under coupled thermal\u2013alkaline water conditions. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses were used to clarify the strength degradation mechanism, and a uniaxial compressive strength characterization model accounting for thermal\u2013chemical\u2013stress damage was developed. The results show that immersion extends the compaction stage and reduces the elastic modulus and peak stress; these effects become more pronounced with increasing temperature and solution alkalinity. The uniaxial compressive strength decreases linearly with temperature and exponentially with pH, and temperature, pH, and their interaction all have significant effects on the uniaxial compressive strength of sandstone (p &amp;lt; 0.001). The strength degradation rate gradually declines as alkalinity increases, whereas higher temperature accelerates strength deterioration. The most pronounced deterioration occurs at 60 \u00b0C and pH = 12, where the uniaxial compressive strength and elastic modulus decrease to 37.724 \u00b1 1.094 MPa and 1.260 \u00b1 0.046 GPa, respectively, corresponding to reductions of 58.50% and 58.25% relative to the dry specimens at the same temperature. Microscopically, sandstone damage evolves from local crack development and fragment spalling to lamellar delamination, edge curling, and propagation of internal defects with increasing alkalinity. The net increase in SiO32\u2013 concentration rises from 5.694 to 14.235 mg\/L, indicating that the dominant water\u2013rock interaction progressively shifts from wetting-induced softening and hydrolysis to alkaline dissolution. The proposed segmented damage constitutive model can describe the compaction stage, pre-peak damage evolution, and mechanical response near the peak. Three-fold leave-one-out validation yields mean relative errors of 6.17\u201312.89%, with an overall mean error of 9.63%. These findings provide a theoretical basis for evaluating and controlling the stability of surrounding rock in deep mines under elevated geothermal and water-temperature conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1021\/acsomega.6c07650","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,18]],"date-time":"2026-09-18T16:02:19Z","timestamp":1789747339000},"page":"58054-58067","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Degradation Behavior\nand Damage Evolution Model of\nSandstone under Coupled Stress-Temperature-Chemical Action"],"prefix":"10.1021","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Tao","family":"Luo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6628-6638","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jiaotao","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shizhong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gangwei","family":"Fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]},{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chuangnan","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zihan","family":"Kong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dongsheng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]},{"name":"China University of Mining and Technology , , ,","place":["Xuzhou, China, 221116"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"316","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,18]]},"reference":[{"issue":"16","key":"2026092911102071200_cit1","first-page":"2803","article-title":"Study on rock mechanics\nin deep mining engineering","volume":"24","author":"He","year":"2005","journal-title":"Chin.
