Zusammenfassung:Political pressures and environmental concerns have made new oil deposits more difficult and expensive to find in recent years. In response to a decreasing supply of oil, the extraction of oil from new and mature reserves has called for high performance materials with more and more extreme service temperature ranges, increased resistance to harsh oils and chemicals and the ability to withstand higher pressures in down-hole environments. High performance elastomers and thermoplastics have been constantly evolving to meet these needs and are now found in just about everything from subsea trees,
