FDM-printing technology is widely used in many fields including highly responsible industries such as aerospace, oil and gas and automotive manufacturing. Polyphenylene sulfone and its composites are one of the most common used high-performance polymers in those fields but polyphenylene sulfone is expensive and the lower material would be used for production the more applications could be able to enroot polyphenylene sulfone to their industries. Additive manufacturing opens new boundaries comparing to traditional technologies allowing to use the grid filling of parts which can help to reduce the material expenditure. In this research the influence of grid filling to mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfone and its carbon-filled composite samples obtained using FDM-printing technology was studied. The article includes results about the effect of various grid sizes and its type on the mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfone and its carbon-filled composite samples, and It shows the possibility of significant material savings while maintaining the required product properties.

Geological storage of CO2 in saline aquifers and depleted oil and gas reservoirs can help mitigate CO2 emissions. However, CO2 leakage over a long storage period represents a potential concern. Therefore, it is critical to establish a good understanding of the interactions between CO2–brine and cement–caprock/reservoir rock to ascertain the potential for CO2 leakage. Accordingly, in this work, we prepared a unique set of composite samples to resemble the cement–reservoir rock interface. A series of experiments simulating deep wellbore environments were performed to investigate changes in chemical, physical, mechanical, and petrophysical properties of the composite samples. Here, we present the characterisation of composite core samples, including porosity, permeability, and mechanical properties, determined before and after long-term exposure to CO2-rich brine. Some of the composite samples were further analysed by X-ray microcomputed tomography (X-ray µ-CT), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM–EDX). Moreover, the variation of ions concentration in brine at different timescales was studied by performing inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analysis. Although no significant changes were observed in the porosity, permeability of the treated composite samples increased by an order of magnitude, due mainly to an increase in the permeability of the sandstone component of the composite samples, rather than the cement or the cement/sandstone interface. Mechanical properties, including Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio, were also reduced.

Starting out from the need for polyurethanes with higher abrasion and tear resistance for pipeline inspection, an entire class of new high performance elastomers were developed. Within a few years materials were synthesized which did not only extend the mechanical properties of polyurethane elastomers, but also led to the development of completely new products. Applications range from intelligent plastic solutions combining elastomers and electronics via highly abrasion resistant pipe coatings to a new process for recycling and reuse of crosslinked polyurethanes. Fundamental to these successful developments is the “building-block” chemistry of polyurethanes. A very high number of permutations of the up to 7 components used in the synthesis of a polyurethane elastomer is possible. By choosing the right combinations and the right reaction conditions, specific material properties can be designed. Materials exhibiting the following material properties, hitherto not found in polyurethanes, were developed: • An operating temperature range from −50 to +135°C. • Chemical resistance to highly acidic and alkaline media, e.g., pure ammonia. • Significantly higher abrasion and tear resistance than standard polyurethanes. • Exactly adjustable visco-elastic damping (rebound resilience). • Adhesion to steel higher than reported with any other polyurethane elastomer. • A novel polyurethane elastomer with more than 90% share of recycled material reaching mechanical properties in the same range as virgin material. This presentation will detail the materials and their properties and give application examples from pipeline cleaning, pipe protection, and pipe coating to mechanical protection devices made from recycled polyurethane elastomer.

Along with the development of the energy industry, demand for oil and gas pipelines has increased, and as the low oil price era has been prolonged, more economical pipe design and construction are required. Typical examples are ERW pipes used as OCTG or reel-lay pipeline. The ERW pipe is made by passing the plate through continuous rollers, where repetitive loading and unloading causes unintentional plastic deformation and changes in initial steel properties. So, this study focused on both the change of mechanical properties during manufacturing process and collapse strength of ERW pipe considering the Bauschinger effect in order to produce more economical and high performance steel pipe. In this paper, the ERW manufacturing process was divided into three stages: forming station, sizing station, and flattening station. The ERW manufacturing process was simulated as 3D nonlinear finite element models using ABAQUS (6.14-1). Then, the change of mechanical properties at each process station was examined through finite element analysis and PEEQ, Alpha, and residual stress in each process station were evaluated for maintaining continuity of analysis. And flattening station where the reverse bending gives a large change in the mechanical properties was also performed. Finally, the collapse strength of the ERW pipe was evaluated in consideration of the change in compression strength during the manufacturing process. The ABAQUS analytical model was verified by showing analytical results to be identical with the outer diameter measured from the full-scale size pipes. Using the developed analytical model, it is possible to numerically predict the mechanical properties and collapse strength of ERW pipe.

Along with the development of the energy industry, demand for oil and gas pipelines has increased, and as the low oil price era has been prolonged, more economical pipe design and construction are required. Especially, ERW pipe has been expanding its range of applications, which is advantageous in terms of productivity and price. ERW pipes are made by passing through continuous rollers, where unintentional plastic deformation such as the Bauschinger effect occurs. Since plastic deformation caused by repetitive loading and unloading changes the initial properties of steel, it is necessary to precisely predict the final properties of the pipe as well as an accurate understanding of the manufacturing process. So, this study focused on evaluating the effects of manufacturing process considering plastic deformation for high performance ERW pipe manufacturing. In this paper, three manufacturing process stages of ERW pipe were simulated as 3D nonlinear finite element models using ABAQUS: forming stage, sizing stage, and flattening stage. And the ABAQUS model was verified by comparison with the outer diameter measured from full-scale size pipes. In order to maintain the continuity of analysis between each manufacturing process stage, PEEQ, Alpha and residual stress were obtained from each manufacturing process stage, and then these mechanical properties were mapped to the next manufacturing process stage. And change of mechanical properties during the each manufacturing process stage were examined. Finally, the change of material properties at the flattening stage where reverse bending occurs was evaluated, especially in influence of sizing ratio on the flattening stage. Through the developed analytical model, numerical prediction of the mechanical properties of ERW pipe is possible.

During these last 10 years, high performance correction procedures have been developed for classical EPMA, and it is nowadays possible to obtain accurate quantitative analysis even for soft X-ray radiations. It is also possible to perform EPMA by adapting this accurate quantitative procedures to unusual applications such as the measurement of the segregation on wide areas in as-cast and sheet steel products.The main objection for analysis of segregation in steel by means of a line-scan mode is that it requires a very heavy sampling plan to make sure that the most significant points are analyzed. Moreover only local chemical information is obtained whereas mechanical properties are also dependant on the volume fraction and the spatial distribution of highly segregated zones. For these reasons we have chosen to systematically acquire X-ray calibrated mappings which give pictures similar to optical micrographs. Although mapping requires lengthy acquisition time there is a corresponding increase in the information given by image anlysis.

We are studying the crystallization and annealing behavior of high performance polymers, like poly(p-pheny1ene sulfide) PPS, and poly-(etheretherketone), PEEK. Our purpose is to determine whether PPS, which is similar in many ways to PEEK, undergoes reorganization during annealing. In an effort to address the issue of reorganization, we are studying solution grown single crystals of PPS as model materials.Observation of solution grown PPS crystals has been reported. Even from dilute solution, embrionic spherulites and aggregates were formed. We observe that these morphologies result when solutions containing uncrystallized polymer are cooled. To obtain samples of uniform single crystals, we have used two-stage self seeding and solution replacement techniques.
