This book was released on 2013 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As competition and demand increases, a new normal has risen. Offshore exploration and recovery is moving to greater depths, at higher pressures and temperatures than ever previously encountered and often in substantially more demanding and corrosive environments. Land based operations are utilizing a broader array of enhanced oil recovery fluids and media, as well as being forced to work in high H2S concentration deposits, each of which places further strain on the non-metallic components of the devices and tools used in the recovery of fluids and gases. In some environments, such as tar sands, requirements for highly abrasion resistant materials with broad operating temperature windows in high pressure steam contact is presenting new challenges to materials providers.

Download or read book High Performance Polymers Polyimides Based from Chemistry to Applications written by Alano Riley and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymers are substances whose molecules have high molar masses and are composed of a large number of repeating units. There are both naturally occurring and synthetic polymers. Among naturally occurring polymers are proteins, starches, cellulose, and latex. Synthetic polymers are produced commercially on a very large scale and have a wide range of properties and uses. High performance plastics differ from standard plastics and engineering plastics primarily by their temperature stability, but also by their chemical stability and mechanical properties, production quantity, and price. There are many synonyms for the term high-performance plastics, such as: high temperature plastics, highperformance polymers, high performance thermoplastics or high-tech plastics. We are using high-performance polymers in almost every aspect of our lives from fairly obvious areas like automotive, aerospace, defence and many parts of the energy industry, through to areas you may not automatically think of like electronics, medical, sport and even food-related applications. Without these high-performing plastics, elastomers and composites, there is so much that just wouldn't be either technically possible or economically viable. In most applications the conditions that these materials endure are very harsh in terms of temperature, pressure, mechanical stress/strain or chemical environment and so the correct materials must be carefully selected in order to balance the necessary properties, performance level and durability with cost.High Performance Polymers - Polyimides Based - From Chemistry to Applications review synthesis, mechanisms, ultimate properties, physico-chemical properties, processing and applications of such high performance materials needed in advanced technologies. This book should be of immense valuable for materials scientists, polymer chemists, manufacturers of electronic components and process engineers.
