Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electric submersible pump motor can include a housing; and a hermetically sealed cavity defined at least in part by the housing that includes at least one material susceptible to hydrolysis, and a polymeric material that includes epitaxial co-crystals of perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An electric submersible pump motor comprising: a housing; and a hermetically sealed cavity defined at least in part by the housing that comprises at least one material susceptible to hydrolysis, and a polymeric material that comprises epitaxial co-crystals of perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). 2. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 wherein the PFA is a polymer of tetrafluoroethylene and perfluorovinylether. 3. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 wherein the polymeric material comprises a polymeric material formed from a melt-fabricable tetrafluoroethylene/perfluoro(alkyl vinyl ether) copolymer, wherein the perfluoroalkyl contains 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and melt flowable polytetrafluoroethylene. 4. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 comprising dielectric oil disposed in the hermetically sealed cavity. 5. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 wherein the at least one material susceptible to hydrolysis comprises polyimide. 6. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 5 wherein the polymeric material contacts the polyimide. 7. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 comprising motor slot liner film formed at least in part by the polymeric material. 8. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 comprising a stator. 9. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 8 comprising a shaft that comprises a rotor disposed in the hermetically sealed cavity. 10. The electric submersible pump motor of claim 1 wherein the hermetically sealed cavity is sealed against entry of water vapor.
