Publication number: 20140246088Abstract: A process for the preparation of a thin film having at least one layer of a predetermined thickness not exceeding 5 microns is provided such that the integrity of the thin film is preserved. The process for the preparation of such a thin film comprises the step of rolling at least one sheet. The step of rolling is preceded by a step of stacking at least one sheet on a substrate having a predetermined thickness. The process of stacking preferably includes the step of bonding at least one sheet to a substrate. The sheet is a metal, alloy or a combination thereof, the metal and the alloy being of metals selected from the groups IB, IIB, IIIA, IVA, IVB, VB and VIB.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2012Publication date: September 4, 2014Applicant: RELIANCE INDUSTRIES LIMITEDInventors: Uday Agarwal, Swanand Patil

Patent number: 8172997Abstract: An electrochemical sensor system for sensing free radicals or materials which generate free radicals in solution includes a working electrode coated with a plurality of cerium oxide nanoparticles and a counter electrode. A solution to be analyzed provides electrolytes to electrically couple the working electrode to the counter electrode. Electronics are connected to at least one of the working and counter electrodes for measuring and amplifying an electrical current signal generated by reduction or oxidation occurring at the working electrode, wherein in a presence of free radicals an electrical current signal flows between the working electrode and the counter electrode. The system can be used to sense the presence of hydrogen peroxide.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2006Date of Patent: May 8, 2012Assignee: University of Central Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: Sudipta Seal, Hyoung Cho, Swanand Patil, Anjum Mehta

Patent number: 7959690Abstract: Novel nano-sized rare earth metal oxide prepared from aqueous reverse micelles is provided. The engineered nanoparticles have large surface area to volume ratios, and sufficient oxygen vacancies on the surface of each particle, so that when mixed with carbon-containing combustible fuels, the particles remain suspended indefinitely; there is a significant reduction in soot and other by-products of combustion, an increase in engine efficiency and less fuel consumed per mile traveled in various vehicles, such as, but not limited to, automobiles, defense vehicles, airplanes, ships and other surface or air-bearing vehicles.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2007Date of Patent: June 14, 2011Assignee: University of Central Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: Sudipta Seal, Eric L. Petersen, Sameer Deshpande, Swanand Patil, Suresh Chandra Kuiry

Patent number: 7727559Abstract: Methods and compositions useful for neuronal protection in retinal cells in vitro and the protection of mammalian cells from reactive oxygen species in vivo are provided. Ultrafine nano-size cerium oxide particles, less than 10 nanometers in diameter, have been provided to decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS) in retina tissue that generates large amounts of ROS. These reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in light-induced retina degeneration and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Cerium oxide nanoparticles have been used to promote the lifespan of retinal neurons and protect the neurons from apoptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide in vitro and in vivo. The neuronal protection in retinal cells is achieved by decreasing generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, cerium oxide particles are used to promote the longevity of retinal neurons in vitro and mammalian cells in vivo.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2006Date of Patent: June 1, 2010Assignee: University of Central Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: James F. McGinnis, Junping Chen, Lily Wong, Steve Sezate, Sudipta Seal, Swanand Patil
