Patents by Inventor Emmanuel Croisier

Emmanuel Croisier 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).

  • Publication number: 20200347217
    Abstract: Various blends of polymers are disclosed, comprising oligopeptide functionalised polymers such as polyisobutylene and polystyrene. Mono-functionalised and di-functionalised polymers (each containing 0 to 5 peptide units beyond its terminal amide group) may be blended with each other and/or with non-functionalised polymers to produce blended compositions. Such compositions are of use, for example, in vibrations dampers. Certain blends also exhibit self-healing properties.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20120271003
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention relate to block copolymers having the properties of thermoplastic elastomers made of blocks on the basis of isobutene monomer units as the soft segment and blocks on the basis of oligoamides composed of at least two base units, each of which comprises an amino or a carbonyl group in the ?, ?, ? or ? position to each other or directly bound to each other, as the hard segment. Such block copolymers are suited for producing fibers, microfibers, and films.
