Abd El Rahman S. Khder 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).

  • Production of Graphene and Nanoparticle Catalysts Supported on Graphene Using Microwave Radiation
    Publication number: 20150087498
    Abstract: Microwave irradiation is used to synthesize graphene and metallic nanocatalysts supported on graphene either by solid or solution phase. In solid phase methods, no solvents or additional reducing agents are required so the methods are “environmentally friendly” and economical, and the graphene and nanocatalysts are substantially free of residual contaminants. Recyclable, high efficiency Pd nanocatalysts are prepared by these methods.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 29, 2014
    Publication date: March 26, 2015
    Applicant: Virginia Commonwealth University
    Inventors: M. Samy El-Shall, Victor Abdelsayed, Hassan M. A. Hassan, Abd El Rahman S. Khder, Khaled M. AbouZeid, Qilin Dai, Parichehr Afshani, Frank Gupton, Ali R. Siamaki, Zeid Abdullah M. Alothman, Hamad Zaid Alkhathlan
