Publication number: 20240076808Abstract: An apparatus and method for the low temperature carbonization of a continuous tow of polymeric material fiber, such as PAN or other carbon fiber precursor materials at atmospheric pressure in an inert gas (usually nitrogen or argon) is disclosed. A pair of antennas are arranged within an electromagnetic cavity and face each other in an edgewise fashion for direct electromagnetic heating of the fiber tow as it passes between them. Supplemental background heating increases the dielectric loss of the fiber tow in order to improve absorption of electromagnetic energy and prevent arcing. The invention produces a higher density low temperature carbonized fiber in a shorter residence time compared to conventional low temperature carbonization.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2022Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: William W. Wallace, Hippolyte A. Grappe, Felix L. Paulauskas, H. Felix Wu, Truman Bonds

Patent number: 9193664Abstract: A means of directing nucleation and crystal growth has been developed in which these stages of crystallization are influenced by surface energy modifications to amorphous substrates. The surface energy of a substrate can affect the contact angle, line tension, wettability and energetics of the interaction with a supersaturated solution, and these factors are important in crystallization. The use of amorphous substrates creates an opportunity to modify their surface to create useful ranges of surface energies that enhance or inhibit, as may be advantageous, the thermodynamic, kinetic, or a combination of both, factors in nucleation, crystal growth, or crystallization from a supersaturated solution.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2014Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: DENOVX, LLCInventors: Andrew H. Bond, Kevin M. Schaab

Patent number: 7091338Abstract: A purification method is disclosed for a predetermined water-insoluble extractant present in a liquid phase composition that additionally contains one or more additional extractants, synthesis reaction starting materials, and reaction byproducts dissolved as solutes in an organic diluent. An ion-containing compound is admixed with the composition to form an extractant/ion complex in the organic diluent phase that has an affinity for a new phase that is greater than the affinity for the first-named phase. The predetermined extractant/ion complex is separated from the diluent by using the new phase affinity, and the extractant/ion complex is preferably although not necessarily recovered. The extractant/ion complex is separated into extractant and ion. The extractant is recovered. Exemplary extractants include polyethers, crown ethers, crown thioethers, calixarenes, polyamines, cryptands, porphyrins and the like.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2002Date of Patent: August 15, 2006Assignee: PG Research FoundationInventors: Andrew H.

Patent number: 7087206Abstract: A multicolumn selectivity inversion generator separation method has been developed in which actinium ions, a desired daughter radionuclide, are selectively extracted from a solution of the thorium parent and daughter radionuclides by a primary separation column, stripped, and passed through a second guard column that retains any parent or other daughter interferents, while the desired daughter actinium ions and radium ions elute. This separation method minimizes the effects of radiation damage to the separation material and permits the reliable production of radionuclides of high chemical and radionuclidic purity for use in diagnostic or therapeutic nuclear medicine.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2002Date of Patent: August 8, 2006Assignee: PG Research FoundationInventors: Andrew H.

Patent number: 6889813Abstract: A controlled material transport method for carrying materials to and from workstations, test equipment, and processing and assembly tools in a common facility. The present invention includes a rigid “robot vehicle” mountable to a passive track system, which can be routed to service all processing tools on the factory floor. The robot vehicle includes a hoist assembly and gripper assembly, which together perform such functions as picking up magazines, placing magazines, and loading magazines into the processing tools. The hoist assembly is capable of functioning in an operational envelope, which includes any target location within a 3-axis Cartesian coordinate system, to the extent of the range of motion of the hoist assembly. The hoist assembly also provides rigid and controlled z-axis travel, while being compact when retracted. The gripper assembly facilitates loading of the magazines, especially chute style magazines, which are commonly found on many existing processing tools.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2000Date of Patent: May 10, 2005Assignee: Amkor Technology, Inc.Inventors: Harold L.

Patent number: 6852296Abstract: A multicolumn selectivity inversion generator has been developed in which bismuth-213 is selectively extracted from an HCl solution of the actinium-225 parent (and its radiogenic descendents) by a primary separation column containing a separation medium containing a neutral oxygenated organophosphorus extractant. After rinsing with dilute HCl, the bismuth-213 is stripped with a buffered NaCl solution. The stripped solution is passed through a cation-exchange resin guard column that retains the actinium-225 and radium-225 contaminants while the bismuth-213 elutes. This generator method minimizes the unpredictable effects of radiation damage to the support material and permits the reliable production of bismuth-213 of high chemical and radionuclidic purity.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2002Date of Patent: February 8, 2005Assignee: PG Research FoundationInventors: Andrew H.
