This invention will facilitate superior surface castings for continuously cast bar product, eliminate any possibility of undesirable mold-casting interactions, and enable interfacing particle injection systems to introduce dispersions/nanoparticles into the molten surface to p
This invention relates to development of robust transparent surfaces that repels wide variety of liquids, prevents staining and is capable of self-healing.
Here we disclose a formulation for sustainable thermoplastics and thermosets for composite applications. In our earlier work we rendered plasticity in rigid bio-derived resin by binding it with other soft segments that induce ductility in the matrix.
RMX and ORNL have completed a feasibility study of a low cost carbonization method. This technique utilized RMX’s proprietary atmospheric pressure plasma technology coupled with an electromagnetic heating technique that is extremely energy efficient.
Polymer nanocomposite materials are a growing interest due to their enhanced properties over base polymers. By incorporating certain filler materials into a polymer matrix, the resulting material benefits from the polymer characteristics (flexibility, processability) as
This invention targets the extraction of rare earth elements from fly ash residues. The residues are leached and the aqueous phase is then extracted using an organic phase.
This invention affords the quantitative extraction of rare earths present in phosphoric acid streams produced in phosphoric acid plants. The stream is typically 27%-30% P2O5 while the total amount of rare earths is estimated at 150-200 ppm.
The present invention includes a method of growing silica nanofibers of very small diameter (~ 30 nm) without employing any conventional techniques such as electro-spinning or glass drawing.
This invention demonstrates that a single graphene sheet (or a plurality of graphene sheets) can be used in variety of applications to reinforce already existing materials; the graphene can also be used as is.
There is a significant need for new materials in the next generation, high efficiency automotive engines. It is highly desirable that such materials possess improved properties and be available at lower cost.
