  • Ballistic fabrics with improved antiballistic properties
    Patent number: 8080487
    Abstract: The present invention provides fabrics that have unique mechanical, chemical, electrical, and thermal properties. The fabrics comprise layers of woven, knit or felted fibers, yarns or tow. Interstitially synthesized nanotubes, such as single-walled or multi-walled carbon nanotubes, enhance the fabric's antiballistic properties. These nanotubes may also insulate, semi-conduct or super-conduct electrical charges, or provide enhanced thermal properties of these fabrics which can be layered to form unique garments or structures.

  • High heat density transfer device
    Patent number: 5825624
    Abstract: Heat transfer device (30) dissipates and removes heat energy from a heat source and delivers the heat energy to a heat sink. Heat transfer device (30) includes diamond substrate (32) for receiving the heat energy from the heat source. Interconnect point (36) connects to diamond substrate (32). Fiber (34), such as a carbon fiber, connects at interconnect point (36) to receive the heat energy from diamond substrate (32) and conduct the heat energy to the heat sink.
