  • Catalyst production
    Patent number: 8889583
    Abstract: The present disclosure utilizes an emulsion aggregation (EA) process to produce ceramic catalysts of controlled surface area, in particular, extremely high surface area powders. In embodiments, resins are utilized to form resin catalysts including the active catalysts. These resin catalysts may be in powder form, having a high surface area. The particle size, particle size distribution, and shape of the produced powders can be controlled to a great degree. In embodiments, the powders can also be made porous.

  • Methods for preparing pharmaceuticals by emulsion aggregation processes
    Patent number: 8263132
    Abstract: A method for making a pharmaceutical by emulsion aggregation, the method including emulsifying a first pharmaceutical agent and a biodegradable resin to form a primary emulsion of pre-aggregated particles in a slurry; aggregating the pre-aggregated particles to form aggregated pharmaceutical particles in the slurry; and isolating the pharmaceutical particles. The method may be used to make time-released, multi-formulation, and inhalable pharmaceuticals.

  • Fuser member comprising deflocculated material
    Patent number: 8010033
    Abstract: A fuser component useful in electrostatographic machines is provided, having a substrate, and thereover a coating composition comprising a haloelastomer, such as, for example, a fluoroelastomer, and a deflocculating agent. A fuser component comprising a deflocculating agent exhibits improved properties including, but not limited to, increased gloss and a smoother coating surface with a relatively high adhesive strength. The use of a deflocculating agent also reduces or eliminates the barium sulfate defect.
