Greene Tweed, a global manufacturer of high-performance seals, thermoplastics, composites, and engineered components, announces the availability of its Arlon 3000 XT<\/a><\/strong>thermoplastic for extreme conditions in oil and gas applications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greene Tweed\u2019s advanced engineering thermoplastic, Arlon 3000 XT, delivers improved performance over other available materials: in dynamic mechanical analysis, it demonstrated a glass transition temperature 35\u02daF higher than<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PEEK, and provided superior mechanical property retention from 350\u02daF to 600\u02daF. In extrusion testing, Arlon 3000 XT outperformed both virgin and filled grades of PEEK and PEKEKK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arlon 3000 XT, Greene Tweed\u2019s patented, non-filled, cross-linked PEEK, can address oil and gas industry concerns regarding voltage creep and tracking distance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arlon 3000 XT provides improved volume resistivity 30 times that of PEK at 400\u00b0F (204\u00b0C) and dielectric strength, measured at 730 V\/mil using a 40-mil-thick sample in an ASTM D149 testing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Arlon 3000 XT has 1.5 to 6 times higher mechanical properties compared to PEEK in tensile, compressive, flexural, and shear tests at a test range of 392\u00b0F to 500\u00b0F (200\u00b0C to 260\u00b0C), which provides the support typically provided by a metal element. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Arlon 3000 XT is capable of withstanding all common oilfield chemistries, resulting in components with enhanced reliability and extended life in harsh environments. This thermoplastic allows Greene Tweed\u2019s oil and gas customers to explore High Pressure, High Temperature (HPHT) resource reserves safely, predictably, and with maximum efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is appropriate for use in back-up rings, v-rings, electrical connectors, and seal assemblies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
