About

Materials described in this database are short and structured summaries to help practical people understanding the basics of the materials and especially the material weaknesses. Selecting materials is a complex process and should always be performed by a material expert. This database will however help the project manager to ask the right questions during the material selection process.

What are materials

Materials are the building blocks for technology components. This database has emphasis on metal alloys and polymer compounds used for well technology.

Metals

Metals are structured as a large number of crystal grains. Each grain is a region with regularity. The physical properties of metals are highly dependent on the grain size and structure within the grains. Common metals used in well applications are:

Polymers

Polymers arelarge chain like molecules made up of small repeating units called monomers. Common polymers used in well applications are:
