  • Patent number: 11285640
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a facility for forming one of a graphene-polymer resin composite and a carbon material-polymer resin composite. According to the facility of the present disclosure, in a process of forming the composite, gas and water vapor contained in graphene, a carbon material, and a polymer resin are effectively removed resulting in an increase in coupling force between the polymer resin and one of the graphene and the carbon material, and the graphene and the carbon material is uniformly dispersed inside the polymer resin resulting in no degradation of physical properties of the composite, and also, the polymer resin may be prevented from carbonizing and solidifying because there is no stagnant section while molten liquid of the polymer resin and one of the graphene and the carbon material passes through each apparatus in the facility, and thus, physical properties of the composite are maintained constant.

  • Patent number: 11272876
    Abstract: A system for monitoring a fetus in a pregnant woman, and/or the maternal health risk for pregnancies complicated by such as pre-eclampsia and hypertensive disorders is configured to be worn by the pregnant woman, preferably so as to allow monitoring during daily life, e.g. in the form of an adhesive patch. The unit has a sound sensor, e.g. a microphone or accelerometer, to be positioned on the skin of the abdominal area so as to detect a vascular sound from umbilical arteries of the fetus or from the uterine arteries of the pregnant woman. The sound sensor is functionally connected to a processing unit which executes a processing algorithm on the captured vascular sound and extracts a signal parameter accordingly. The processing unit then communicates the signal parameter, e.g. using an audio signal, a visual display or by means of a wired or a wireless data signal.
