  • Publication number: 20240142000
    Abstract: Shut-off valves for cryogenic fluids are disclosed herein. An example valve includes a valve body defining a flow path and a valve seat, a bonnet coupled to the valve body and defining a bonnet chamber, a plug configured to slide between a closed position, and a stem coupled to the plug. The stem is configured to slide to cause the plug to slide. The valve includes a spindle that includes external threads. The spindle is configured to move along a longitudinal axis of the bonnet as the spindle is rotated about the longitudinal axis via the external threads to cause the stem to slide linearly along the longitudinal axis. The valve includes a pivot ball positioned between and operatively coupled to the stem and the spindle. The pivot ball is configured to translate linear and rotational movement of the spindle into linear movement of the stem and the plug.

  • Publication number: 20240141537
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a superhydrophobic and self-cleaning anticoagulant composite coating material and a preparation method and use thereof, and relates to the technical field of biomedical materials. In the coating material provided by the present disclosure, a titanium dioxide nanotube-based structure increases microscopic roughness of a surface of a titanium-based metal substrate, and a hydrophobic modification layer reduces surface energy of the material. The rough structure and the hydrophobic modification layer have a synergistic effect to construct a superhydrophobic surface, making the surface of the material have self-cleaning characteristics and low adhesion. Air can be retained on the surface of the material to form an air layer, thereby reducing the contact area between the material and bacteria and platelets in the blood, and inhibiting adhesion of the bacteria, platelets, and plasma proteins to the material.
