Patents by Inventor Nicole S. Sampson

Nicole S. Sampson 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).

  • Patent number: 10487172
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of polymers and olefin polymerization, and more specifically olefin metathesis polymerization. Specifically, the present invention provides a polymer comprising rigorously alternating AB subunits and methods of formation of the AB alternating polymers. In the polymers and process of the invention, the A monomer is derived from a cyclobutene derivative, and the B monomer is derived from a cyclohexene derivative. The polymerization takes place in the presence of an olefin metathesis catalyst.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 21, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 26, 2019
    Assignee: The Research Foundation for The State University of New York
