  • Patent number: 7527887
    Abstract: The invention relates to the structures of proton exchange membranes with different molecular permeabilities, especially to the proton exchange membranes suitable for the applications in Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) and with the function of recovering water from the cathode. The polymeric structures are the designs of phase separated structures of the crystalline phase and the amorphous phases, thereby limiting the swelling of the materials and the space of ionic cluster structures in nano-scale to reduce the permeability of methanol fuels On the other hand, by controlling of polymeric grafting reactions result in the reverse (from the cathode to the anode) permeability of the product water molecules on the cathode in the proton exchange materials greater than the permeability of methanol molecules in the fuels (from the anode to the cathode) due to the differences of fuel concentrations between the cathode and the anode of DMFC.

  • Patent number: 5271784
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a composite bicycle frame adapts stepped forming. The seat stays combined with the seat support means which are connected to parts of the top tube and seat tube, and the chain stays combined with the pedal support means which are connected to parts of the down tube and seat tube, are formed respectively. The seat stays connect to the chain stays by inserting a pair of rear wheel dropouts therebetween, to form substantially a pair of rear triangles of the bicycle frame. The seat tube and the steering support means connected to the top tube and down tube are laid up respectively. The cured rear triangles connect to uncured seat tube and steering support means associated with top tube and down tube, wherein the top tube, down tube, and seat tube form a front triangle. The front triangle is cured such that manufacturing of the whole bicycle frame is completed.
