SOLUTIONS FOR STEEL PIPES - Multi-layer anticorrosion pipe coating system

DuPont™ Fusabond® reactive polyethylene, formulated to adhere to metal surfaces that have been correctly prepared. It can be used as a tie layer between nylon and polyethylene as well as the capability to bond to partially cured epoxies.

DuPont™ Nap-Gard® epoxy powder for corrosion protection provides reaction sites for chemical bonding to the adhesive tie layer which ensures high peel strength adhesion results. » More

 

SOLUTIONS FOR UMBILICALS AND RISERS

DuPont™ Kevlar® is used as the primary strength reinforcement in umbilicals and risers. Kevlar® is ideal for the rigors of offshore oil production and exploration thanks to its chemical and corrosion resistance properties, as well as its resistance to elongation under load and "creep"—incremental elongation distortion over time. »More

DuPont™ Pipelon® engineering resins are used as the liner and wear tape material of the umbilicals to reduce hydrocarbon permeation and improve chemical resistance, temperature, pressure and corrosion resistance.

DuPont™ Teflon® and Tefzel® are the insulation material of choice for various wires, cables and tubes of umbilicals ensuring electrical properties over a wide range of temperature and in contact with aggressive mediums.»More

 

SOLUTIONS FOR REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC PIPES

DuPont™ Pipelon ® resins are used in multi-layer composite reinforced thermoplastic pipes, improving permeation resistance, higher temperature, higher pressure, lighter weight and lower life cycle cost pipe.

DuPont™ Kevlar® is used for the reinforcement of the pipes, enabling higher pressure ratings. »More

 

SOLUTIONS FOR TUBING

DuPont™ StreaMax ™ coating system, used in downhole production tubulars, provides flow assurance and corrosion protection in extreme sweet and sour environments at a wide temperature range.

 

SOLUTIONS FOR COST-EFFECTIVE CLEANING

DuPont™ Glycolic Acid provides a low-cost metal-complexing capability in a readily biodegradable form that will not add harmful (Biological Oxygen Demand) BOD or Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) to formulated products.
