  • Patent number: 9370749
    Abstract: A method and porous multi-component material for the capture, separation or chemical reaction of a species of interest is disclosed. The porous multi-component material includes a substrate and a composite thin film. The composite thin film is formed by combining a porous polymer with a nanostructured material. The nanostructured material may include a surface chemistry for the capture of chemicals or particles. The composite thin film is coupled to the support or device surface. The method and material provides a simple, fast, and chemically and physically benign way to integrate nanostructured materials into devices while preserving their chemical activity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 24, 2013
    Date of Patent: June 21, 2016
    Assignee: BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE
    Inventors: Raymond S. Addleman, Wilaiwan Chouyyok, Xiaohong S. Li, Anthony D. Cinson, Aleksandr A. Gerasimenko
  • Patent number: 8943910
    Abstract: An enhanced swipe sampler and method of making are described. The swipe sampler is made of a fabric containing selected glass, metal oxide, and/or oxide-coated glass or metal fibers. Fibers are modified with silane ligands that are directly attached to the surface of the fibers to functionalize the sampling surface of the fabric. The swipe sampler collects various target analytes including explosives and other threat agents on the surface of the sampler.
