To pump a quantity of heavy mud into the drill pipe. Before hoisting drill pipe, it is desirable(if possible) to pump into its top section a quantity of heavy mud, or a slug, that causes the level of the fluid in the pipe to fall; thus, when a stand of pipe is unscrewed, the drilling fluid has been emptied out of it so that the crew members and the rig floor are not contaminated with the fluid. 2, record 19, English, - slug%20the%20pipe

La famille des thermoplastiques techniques vient de s'agrandir. [...] La polycétone aliphatique [...] aurait hérité grosso modo, du caractère de deux de ses proches parents : le polyamide (PA) et le polyacétal (POM). Par sa tenue en température, la nouvelle résine tiendrait plutôt du polyamide. Tandis que sa bonne tenue à l'eau et sa «clipsabilité», c'est-à-dire à la fois sa résistance mécanique et son élasticité, lui prêteraient davantage les traits du polyacétal. [...] La polycétone aliphatique est un polymère à chaîne linéaire, dans laquelle alternent très régulièrement des molécules de monoxyde de carbone et d'éthylène. [...] Premiers secteurs d'application visés : l'automobile, l'électrotechnique et l'électroménager. 1, record 22, French, - polyc%C3%A9tone%20aliphatique
