Daniel Lacave 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).

  • Multilayer, temperature resistant, composite label
    Patent number: 6582805
    Abstract: A composite material suitable for labeling a substrate. The composite material, which is preferably a ceramic composite, comprises a fired ceramic body and a layer thereon. The fired ceramic body includes a base layer that comprising a glassy phase and a refractory phase, the glassy phase being capable of wetting a substrate at an application temperature. There is sufficient color contrast between the top layer and the fired ceramic body such that a code pattern (e.g., a bar code) present (or formed) is optically discernible. Methods of making and using the same are also taught.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 1, 2000
    Date of Patent: June 24, 2003
    Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties Company
    Inventors: Kyung H. Moh, Daniel Lacave, Bernardus M. Sueoss
