18 Jan 2011 • Self heal elastomers discussed in webinar
EPNanoNet's third fascinating webinar looked at the potential for
nanotechnology enhanced elastomers in the oil and gas sector.

Exploring both enhanced elastomers which could self-heal and survive HP/HT
conditions, this webinar demonstrated how critical it is to adopt state-of-the-art
nanotechnology research into oil and gas applications.
