Patents by Inventor August Charles Krupp

August Charles Krupp 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).

  • Patent number: 11330744
    Abstract: Discrete, individualized carbon nanotubes having targeted, or selective, oxidation levels and/or content on the interior and exterior of the tube walls are claimed. Such carbon nanotubes can have little to no inner tube surface oxidation, or differing amounts and/or types of oxidation between the tubes' inner and outer surfaces. These new discrete carbon nanotubes are useful in treatment compositions for contaminated soil and ground water. Additives such as plasticizers, can be used in compounding and formulation of elastomeric, thermoplastic and thermoset composite for improvement of mechanical, electrical and thermal properties.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210284538
    Abstract: Dry liquid concentrates allow carbon nanotubes to be dispersed in various mediums under standard composite processing conditions. The incorporation of carbon nanotubes can enhance the physical properties of the resulting material, such as, for example, improving the anti-corrosive properties of thermosets if present, and/or improving electrical properties of transitional metal oxide composites.

  • Patent number: 11053362
    Abstract: Dry liquid concentrates allow carbon nanotubes to be dispersed in rubber formulations under standard rubber processing conditions. The incorporation of carbon nanotubes can enhance the physical properties of the resulting rubber material in many ways, including creating a more resilient rubber which resists abrasion, tearing, and chipping.

  • Patent number: 10913888
    Abstract: Discrete, individualized carbon nanotubes having targeted, or selective, oxidation levels and/or content on the interior and exterior of the tube walls can be used for nanotube-mediated controlled delivery of degradative molecules, such as oxidizers and enzymes, for oil-field drilling applications. A manufacturing process using minimal acid oxidation for carbon nanotubes may also be used which provides higher levels of oxidation compared to other known manufacturing processes.
