Abstract

The oil and gas industry has been tagged as among the largest revenue-generating sectors in the world. High-performance polymers (HPPs), on the other hand, are among the most useful industrial materials, while the utility of 3D printing technologies has evolved and transitioned from rapid prototyping of composite materials to manufacturing of functional parts. In this prospective, we highlight the potential uses and industrial applications of 3D-printed HPP materials in the oil and gas sector, including the challenges and opportunities present.Graphical abstract

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • PEI has a wide processing temperature range from 350°C to 425°C and a glass transition temperature ranging from 217°C to 250°C.

    “PEI boasts a wide processing temperature range, spanning from 350 ◦ C to 425 ◦ C, and exhibits a high glass transition temperature, ranging from 217 ◦ C to 250 ◦ C.”

    From A comprehensive review of lunar-based manufacturing and construction (2024) · cites this paper as [206]

    The 'Commonly used HPPs > Polyetherimide' section (page unavailable) says PEI requires high processing temperatures and a nozzle of about 400°C, but does not give a 350–425°C processing range. It gives glass transition temperatures of 186°C for ULTEM 9085 and 217°C for ULTEM 1010, not a 217–250°C range. (LLM, conf=0.88)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • PEI's outgassing values fall within the allowable range specified by NASA for in-space processing.

    “Similar to PEEK, its outgassing values fall within the allowable range specified by NASA for in-space processing.”

    From A comprehensive review of lunar-based manufacturing and construction (2024) · cites this paper as [206]

    The PEI discussion in “Commonly used HPPs” describes heat resistance, low smoke emission, and printing conditions, but gives no outgassing values. Searches for outgassing, NASA limits, and spacecraft use found no passage in our copy addressing whether PEI meets an allowable range for in-space processing. (LLM, conf=0.75)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • PEI has a density of 1.27 g/cm3 and a tensile stress (at yield) of 110 MPa.

    “PEI has a 1 . 27 g/cm 3 density and a tensile stress (at yield) of 110 MPa.”

    From A comprehensive review of lunar-based manufacturing and construction (2024) · cites this paper as [206]

    The Polyetherimide subsection describes PEI as strong but gives no density or tensile stress at yield. Searches for “1.27,” “110 MPa,” and “tensile stress (at yield)” found no passage establishing either claimed value in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
