POLYMER-BONDED METALLIC ELEMENTS USED AS STRENGTH MEMBERS, AND/OR POWER OR DATA CARRIERS IN OILFIELD CABLES

摘要

A method for manufacturing a component includes a step of providing at least one metallic element. A surface of the at least one metallic element is modified to facilitate a bonding of the at least one metallic element to a polymeric layer. The polymeric layer is then bonded to the at least one metallic element to form the component.
