Patents by Inventor Chris CARPEN

Chris CARPEN 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: 11884847
    Abstract: A curable silicone adhesive having improved elongation-at-break and adhesive properties to various substrates, in particular synthetic textiles used in the manufacture of air bags, to be used, for example, as a joint sealer. These silicone compositions provide excellent adhesive properties such as peel strength and cohesive failure when used to seal joints/seams between two pieces of textile fabric. Airbag fabrics using such novel addition curable adhesive silicone compositions are also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 4, 2021
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2024
    Assignee: ELKEM SILICONES USA CORP.

  • Patent number: 11345817
    Abstract: A two-part curable liquid silicone rubber composition is provided in which the first liquid composition and the second liquid composition yield, upon mixing, a curable liquid silicone rubber composition which, when cured, yields a silicone elastomer having an elongation-at-break value of at least 800%. The silicone elastomers of the invention comprise at least one alkenyl group-containing organopolysiloxane having two silicon-bonded alkenyl groups per molecule, at least one diorganohydrogensiloxy-terminated polydiorganosiloxane, at least one organosilicon crosslinker containing at least 3 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, at least one addition reaction catalyst, and at least one filler. Also provided are silicone elastomers having an elongation-at-break value of at least 800% and withstand elongation without breaking. An article for a medical device comprising a cured product of the two-part curable liquid silicone rubber compositions or the silicone elastomers of the invention are also provided.
