Aerospace and oil & gas industries constitute two important market areas for Solvay plastics

Aerospace
The aerospace industry calls on exceptional products for extreme conditions in applications related to engines and for functional materials in aircraft interiors. 

Engines
In aircraft engines plastics have to face extremes of temperature and pressure and, often, aggressive chemical environments.  For these conditions Solvay materials perform reliably as seals, gaskets, pump liners, fuel and hydraulic hoses, and insulation and jacketing for wire and cable.  

Interior components
In aircraft interiors Solvay specialty plastics comply with stringent safety regulations requiring low heat release, and low levels of smoke and toxic gas emissions.  

Oil and gas
The transport and processing of crude oil require flexibility and high performance under severe conditions.  Solvay high performance plastics are used in various applications, in down-hole operations, as seals, for cable jacketing, insulation and injection tubing encapsulation.
