New Generation of Dissolvable Alloys and Polymers
ABSTRACT: Conventional wisdom is that the more stable and strong of an engineering material, the better performances and wider applications of such a material. While this is generally true, degradable materials are finding their ways into our daily life, mainly in the areas of environmental friendly polymers and bio-degradable alloys for certain medical devices. But except for these limited applications, it is safe to say that degradable materials remain understudied For this talk, we will present the recent research and development of magnesium based alloys and a PVA family of polymer that can sustain extreme pressure (900MPa) and temperature (120oC) and disintegrate after use. Combination of the two new types of materials leads to the development of revolutionary dissolvable hydraulic fracturing plugs (frac plugs) which eliminate the need for a separate milling intervention to achieve a full-bore inner diameter flux after fracturing. The Mg based dissolvable metals can have better mechanical performances than the current glass fiber reinforced polymer composite materials, and the PVA based polymers can be completely dissolved in water. Tuning the chemistry, processing and heat treatment and thus the microstructure of Mg alloys allows the wide range of adjustment of metal strength, ductility and electrochemical dissolution rate. In the meanwhile for the PVA, peculiar effects of water induced a plastic to elastic transition which is still under investigation. Considering the fact that the replacement of conventional composite and rubber with dissolvable alloys and elastomer can lead to new frac plug design, this project can lead to the production of high performance degradable/dissolvable frac plugs with new feature and designs.
