Patents by Inventor Ned Djilali

Ned Djilali has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Membranes and electrochemical cells incorporating such membranes
    Patent number: 8551637
    Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides an ion-conducting membrane comprising an ion-conducting region and a non-ion-conducting region. The ion-conducting region is formed by a plurality of ion-conducting passageways that extend through the membrane. The passageways are filled with ion-conducting material and may be surrounded by non-ion conducting material. The membrane may comprise a substrate of non-ion-conducting material that is penetrated by openings, each opening providing a corresponding one of the passageways.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 23, 2008
    Date of Patent: October 8, 2013
    Assignee: Societe BIC
    Inventors: Gerard F. McLean, Tran Ngo, Ned Djilali, Anna Stukas, Jeremy Schrooten
