Yvan Besson 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).

  • Sizing compositions including weakly-coordinating anion salts and uses thereof
    Patent number: 11370704
    Abstract: A sizing composition including water, a film former, a silane coupling agent, and a weakly-coordinating anion salt is provided. The sizing composition may be applied to fibers used to reinforce polymer compositions. Fiber reinforced composite materials that include reinforcing fibers sized with the sizing composition exhibit improved physical properties, particularly after the fiber reinforced composite material has experience prolonged exposure to heat and water.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 16, 2018
    Date of Patent: June 28, 2022
    Assignee: Owens Corning Intellectual Capital, LLC
    Inventors: Marc Cossement, Jean-Philippe Gasca, Yvan Besson, Julien Romeyer

  • Method for the production of glass threads coated with a thermofusible size and products resulting therefrom
    Patent number: 7886562
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing glass strands coated with a hot-melt size, whereby molten glass streams, flowing out of orifices located in the base of one or more bushings, are drawn in the form of one or more sheets of continuous filaments, the filaments are then assembled into one or more strands that are collected on one or more moving supports, this process consisting in depositing a first composition containing a coupling agent on the glass filaments and then in depositing a second composition comprising a hot-melt polymer in the melt state, at the latest during assembly of the filaments into one or more strands. It also relates to the glass strands obtained according to this process and to the composites containing said strands.
