Abstract: This disclosure presents multi-phase hierarchical porous nanostructure-based polymer composites and associated getter assemblies designed for scavenging multi-gas and organic compounds outgassed from electronic packages, devices, and modules. The composites integrate hydrophilic microporous, hydrophobic microporous, and hydrophobic mesoporous nanoparticles within a polymer matrix to form binary, ternary, or quaternary multi-phase structures. These polymer composites are utilized to fabricate getter assemblies featuring single-layer, bi-layer, or multi-layer configurations on a substrate. The assemblies are tailored to selectively target specific polar and non-polar gases and organic compounds or to adsorb a broad spectrum of outgassed emissions, irrespective of their polarity, molecular size, or surface energy characteristics.

Abstract: Getters for hydrocarbons (HCs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) designed for microelectronic and electronic packages are disclosed. These getters feature a hierarchical porous nanostructured polymer composite layer supported by a substrate.

This tailored structure facilitates the effective absorption of a broad spectrum of polar and non-polar HCs and VOCs, for enhancing the reliability and performance of electronic packages by controlling outgassed emissions.

Abstract: A downhole formation fluid identification sensing module for measuring averaged gas molecular weight of wellbore formation fluid acquires simultaneous temperature, pressure, and density measurements. The sensing module includes two venturi-type gas sensors that both contain vibrating tubes. During operation, formation fluid flows through the vibrating tubes whereby resonant frequency measurements are acquired simultaneously with temperature and pressure measurements. Each measurement is then utilized to determine the gas molecular weight of the dry, wet or saturated formation fluid.

Abstract: A load balancer system having multiple load balancer machines working in parallel. At any given time, one of the load balancer machines is assigned to act as the current distributor that distributes web client communications and/or requests to the other load balancer machines in the load balancer system. However, these web client communications and/or requests are directed to a distributor module on all of the active, parallel load balancer machines in the system (for example, by the expedient of a common virtual IP address for layer 3/4 communications) in case the currently active distributor fails and one of the other active load balancer machines suddenly needs to take on the distributor role. In this way, web client communications are not lost when the current distributor machine fails.
