Description

POLYMERIC COMPONENT AND METHOD OF MAKING
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application claims the benefit of U.S. Application No. 13/029743, filed on February 17, 2011, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
BACKGROUND
[0001] Injection molding is a common method of making polymeric components. Although injection molding is very efficient for making components with specific characteristics, it lacks the ability to make components with certain parameters that are desirable for specific applications. Such parameters may include filtration characteristics, density, permeability and shape memory, for example. Alternate methods of making polymeric components with control over such parameters are always of interest to those practicing in the art.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
[0002] Disclosed herein is a method of making a polymeric component. The method includes, extruding one or more strands of a polymer, halting curing of the one or more strands, forming a mat with the extruded one or more strands, bonding the one or more strands to one another at points of contact therebetween, and curing the one or more strands.
[0003] Further disclosed herein is a polymeric component comprising a compacted mat structure having a plurality of strands of extruded polymeric material bonded at points of contact between the plurality of strands having halted curing prior to fully curing and subsequently being fully cured.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0004] The following descriptions should not be considered limiting in any way. With reference to the accompanying drawings, like elements are numbered alike:
[0005] FIG. 1 depicts a quarter cross sectional view of a polymeric component applied as an expandable screen disclosed herein;
[0006] FIG. 2 depicts a partial perspective view of a spinneret shown extruding multiple strands of polymeric material;

FIG. 3.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0009] A detailed description of one or more embodiments of the disclosed apparatus and method are presented herein by way of exemplification and not limitation with reference to the Figures.
[0010] Referring to Figure 1 an embodiment of a polymeric component disclosed herein is illustrated generally at 10. The polymeric component 10 has a compacted mat structure 14 having a plurality of strands 18 of polymeric material 22 that in this figure is an expandable screen although other components are contemplated. The polymeric material 22 may include a shape memory polymer that is a thermoplastic material, for example.
[0011] Referring to Figures 2-4, in the embodiment illustrated a plurality of the strands 18 are extruded simultaneously from a plurality of orifices 26 of a spinneret 30 into a form 34. The strands 18 are quenched as they are formed into the mat structure 14 to effectively halt curing of the strands 18. The quenching or halting may be by cooling or exposure to a particular environment such as a chemical, for example. Regardless of the halting method employed, in addition to halting curing and cross-linking of the material, the strands 18 are at least partially hardened, thereby allowing them to maintain the mat structure 14 in a lofted condition. Attachment points 42 between strands 18, or portions of a strand 46, are created at locations of contact therebetween, effectively bonding the strands 18 together. Such attachment points 42 may be formed due to tackiness of the quenched polymer, blocking between quenched polymer surfaces in contact, by comingling of polymer chains between the strands 18 in contact prior to quench completion, or the like. As such, the mat structure 14 has structural stability yet is not fully cured. It should be noted that an operator could, by adjusting parameters associated with the extruding and halting of curing, such as temperatures of the extruded strands 18, dimensions of the orifices 26 and distance between the spinneret 30 and the form 34, for example, effectively select a desired amount of loft for the mat structure 14.
[0012] Subsequent to the halting of curing and hardening, additional curing and cross- linking of the mat structure 14 can be carried out, including fully curing and fully cross- linking of the material. The additional curing can be performed in the lofted condition, as hardened, or after additional altering of the mat structure 14 has been performed.
Compaction is one example of an additional process that may be performed. Increasing temperature of the strands 18 prior to or during a compaction process can cause additional attachment points 42 to form. This process provides the operator with an additional level of control of the mat structure 14 and parameters associated therewith. Parameters such as filtration characteristics, density, permeability and shape memory, for example, can be altered to fit the application for which the polymeric component 10 is to be used. For example, if the polymeric component 10 is to be used as a screen to filter particles from a fluid flowable therethrough, characteristics of filtration efficiency and pressure drop can be selected as desired. Other applications for the mat structure 14 include, flow redirection, equalization, damping and spacing, for example.
[0013] Once in the as cured condition, the mat structure 14 may be employed in an application directly, or additional processing may first be performed. In an application wherein the mat structure 14 will be an expandable screen, additional processing can reconfigure the mat structure 14 to a stable and smaller volume than the as cured condition until it is exposed to an environment to cause it to return to the as cured condition and volume. This processing could include heating, compacting and then cooling the mat structure 14, to thereby freeze it at the smaller volume configuration. This smaller volume configuration could thus be maintained until exposed to an actuation temperature that will allow it to expand back toward the as cured volume.
[0014] The mat structure 14 as illustrated in Figure 1 is employed as an expandable screen for a downhole borehole 50 application such as is useful in the carbon dioxide sequestration and hydrocarbon recovery industries. The screen 14 is formed into a cylindrical shape and fitted to a perforated tubular 54. The screen 14, as shown, is in the smaller volume configuration so that it can be run into the borehole 50 without making detrimental contact with walls 58 of the borehole 50. Once deployed at the desired location within the borehole 50 high temperatures that are typically encountered in downhole in earth formations or supplied by an operator can heat the screen 14. In this embodiment, the increased
temperature will cause the screen 14 to expand toward the volume of the as cured
configuration and into contact with the walls 58 of the borehole 50. Such contact is desirable to provide structural support to the formation 62 and minimize erosion of the formation 62 that can occur if an annular gap is allowed to exist between the screen 14 and the walls 58 of the borehole 50.
[0015] Optionally, voids 66 can be formed in the mat structure 14 to create flow channels, attachment hard-points, or other desirable features. To create the voids 66, negatives 70 of the shape the voids 66 will have are positioned within the form 34 prior to strands 18 being extruded into the form 34. After the mat structure 14 has been cured the negatives 70 are removed from the mat structure 14. One embodiment employs lost core technology to remove the negatives 70. This technology uses a meltable material, such as wax, for the negatives 70 that is melted and drained out of the voids 66 when desired. In this case the melting temperature of the negatives 70 should be greater than the curing
temperature of the polymeric material 22 and the post cure heating temperature during the compaction process, but less than the melting temperature of the polymeric material 22 itself.
[0016] While the invention has been described with reference to an exemplary embodiment or embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the invention. In addition, many modifications may be made to adapt a particular situation or material to the teachings of the invention without departing from the essential scope thereof. Therefore, it is intended that the invention not be limited to the particular embodiment disclosed as the best mode contemplated for carrying out this invention, but that the invention will include all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims. Also, in the drawings and the description, there have been disclosed exemplary embodiments of the invention and, although specific terms may have been employed, they are unless otherwise stated used in a generic and descriptive sense only and not for purposes of limitation, the scope of the invention therefore not being so limited. Moreover, the use of the terms first, second, etc. do not denote any order or importance, but rather the terms first, second, etc. are used to distinguish one element from another. Furthermore, the use of the terms a, an, etc. do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced item.
