  • Publication number: 20200255951
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for improving the blood compatibility of a material surface by using a controllable grafting technique. The method involves placing a monomer NVP, an RAFT reagent and a solvent acetonitrile in a container, adding an initiator AIBN, mixing the same uniformly, removing oxygen with liquid nitrogen, making the same react in an oil bath; after polymerization, adding liquid nitrogen to quench and stop the reaction, thus obtaining PVP-COOH; mixing the PVP-COOH with DCC and NHS; adding dry dichloromethane to the mixture in a nitrogen atmosphere, adding mercaptoethylamine, and making the same react in darkness at room temperature; obtaining a crude sample; dissolving the crude sample in water, and performing dialysis with deoxygenated water in darkness, and then obtaining HS-PVP by freeze-drying. An Au—S bond chemisorption method is used to controllably graft an anti-protein high-molecular polymer onto an Au surface.

  • Patent number: 10651646
    Abstract: A fault current limiter, including: two inductors, a direct current circuit breaker, a shunt resistor, a first fixed resistor, and metal oxide arresters. The two inductors include wound superconducting wires. The inductors have identical number of windings and identical structure. Magnetic fluxes of the inductors are forward coupled, and the inductors are connected in parallel to form a superconducting inductor structure. The direct current circuit breaker and the superconducting inductor structure are connected in series to form a series branch. The shunt resistor is connected in parallel to the series branch. The first fixed resistor is connected in parallel to the direct current circuit breaker. The metal oxide arresters are two in number, and are connected to two ends of the inductors in parallel.
