Victrex and Magma Global, in conjunction with TechnipFMC, examine the challenges of using thermoplastic composite materials in Brazil’s chemically challenging pre-salt region in free access webinar

As industries strive for faster, smaller, lighter and more durable, the extremes in which products are expected to function are on the rise. Find out how engineers are meeting these complex design needs with thermoplastics.

Assessing the lifetime of the materials used in Thermoplastic Composite Pipes in aggressive service environments is complex. The current status of methods which may be used and what ‘best practice’ might look like are considered in this blog.

For thermoplastic polymers, chemical degradation in service has been the subject of much research and investigation. When designing pipes or seals for use in oil and gas applications, this knowledge is essential in estimating the useful lifetime of the component.

When designing a critical component for the Energy Industry, material selection is crucial. You need to understand how it will perform in real world conditions, and minimum testing requirements don’t always give you the full picture.
