摘要： A hydrocarbon application cable of reduced nylon with increased flexibility and useful life. The cable may be of a hose or solid configuration and particularly beneficial for use in marine operations. A power and data communicative core of the cable may be surrounded by a lightweight intermediate polymer layer of a given hardness which is ultimately then surrounded by an outer polymer jacket having a hardness that is greater than the given hardness. Thus, a lighter weight polymer is provided interior of the outer polymer jacket, which may be of nylon or other suitably hard material. As such, the overall weight and cost of the cable may be substantially reduced.

摘要： The present invention relates to methods of manufacturing tapeless cable assemblies. The methods generally include providing a plurality of adjacent conductor cables, followed by applying a cross-linkable first material around the plurality of conductor cables and in the interstitial openings occurring between the cables. Cross-linking can be initiated by applying a second material which facilitates cross-linking of the first material or by other means such as exposing the material to ultraviolet radiation. The wrapped assembly is then welded to form a core assembly. The disclosed manufacturing methods do no require a tape, thereby shortening the manufacturing process and reducing the manufacturing costs.

摘要： This invention relates to high molecular weight block copolymers of &egr;-caprolactone and &ohgr;-lauryl lactam prepared by sequential bulk polymerization using a mixture of at least one anionic polymerization initiator and optionally at least one co-initiator. A preferred continuous sequential bulk reactive extrusion process comprises feeding a mixture of &ohgr;-lauryl lactam, at least one anionic polymerization initiator, and at least one co-initiator into the first (i.e., upstream) hopper of an extruder, and thereafter feeding &egr;-caprolactone into a second (i.e., downstream) hopper of the extruder. The preferred continuous sequential bulk reactive extrusion is solvent free, rapid (typical mean and maximum residence times in the extruder being no more than about 20 minutes and 30 minutes respectively), and produces a high conversion of monomers to block copolymer. The poly(&egr;-caprolactone/&ohgr;-lauryl lactam) block copolymers compatibilize the blending of otherwise immiscible or poorly miscible polymers to form polymer blends having improved mechanical and thermal properties. Accordingly, the block copolymers can be compounded with chlorine containing polymers and other polymers such as polyamides, anhydride polymers such as maleic anhydride, and the like. To improve the impact resistance of the compatibilized blend, impact modifiers can be utilized such as maleic anhydride modified EPM, EPDM, and the like. To improve thermal and mechanical properties, thermal performance modifiers can be utilized such as maleic anhydride polyolefins or maleic anhydride modified polymers made from vinyl substituted aromatic monomers.

摘要翻译： 本发明涉及通过使用至少一种阴离子聚合引发剂和任选的至少一种共引发剂的混合物的顺序本体聚合制备的ε-己内酯和ω-月桂基内酰胺的高分子量嵌段共聚物。 优选的连续顺序的本体反应挤出方法包括将ω-月桂基内酰胺，至少一种阴离子聚合引发剂和至少一种共引发剂的混合物进料到挤出机的第一（即上游）料斗中， 己内酯进入挤出机的第二（即，下游）料斗。 优选的连续顺序的本体反应挤出是无溶剂的，快速的（分别在挤出机中典型的平均和最大停留时间不超过约20分钟和30分钟），并且产生单体到嵌段共聚物的高转化率。聚（ε - 己内酯/ω-月桂基内酰胺）嵌段共聚物使其它不混溶或不易混溶的聚合物的共混相容，形成具有改进的机械和热性质的聚合物共混物。 因此，嵌段共聚物可以与含氯聚合物和其它聚合物如聚酰胺，酸酐聚合物如马来酸酐等混合。 为了提高相容化共混物的耐冲击性，可以使用抗冲改性剂，例如马来酸酐改性EPM，EPDM等。 为了改善热和机械性能，可以使用热性能改性剂，例如由乙烯基取代的芳族单体制备的马来酸酐聚烯烃或马来酸酐改性的聚合物。

摘要： A motor winding wire. The motor winding wire may be configured for use in, and direct exposure to, a hydrocarbon environment. The motor winding wire may be electrically insulated by one polymer layer, whereas another, outer, polymer layer is employed to provide moisture resistance as well as other contaminant and hydrocarbon environment shielding to the underlying layer. Additionally, this manner of polymer layering over the motor winding wire is achieved in a manner cognizant of the limited dimension of the motor winding wire.
