  • Method to coat metals onto surfaces
    Patent number: 11976377
    Abstract: Described herein are methods of applying metals to substrates, where the methods include contacting the substrate with an aqueous metal plating composition comprising polyammonium bisulfate (“PABS”) and a dissolved metal or salt thereof. The methods allow application of metals to the substrate without need for electrical energy input or for an added chemical catalyst, chelating agent, complexing agent, reducing agent, stabilizer, or pH-modifying (or controlling) chemical compound.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 14, 2022
    Date of Patent: May 7, 2024
    Assignee: EARTH SCIENCE LABORATORIES, INC.
    Inventors: Nam Tran, John A. Hatten, Jr., Reid Henry Bowman, Jeffrey Alan Keiser, David Hammond, Freddie L. Singleton, David Nicholas

  • METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ACCRETION OF SCALE
    Publication number: 20230174402
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved scale inhibiting formulation that is effective, environmentally friendly, and does not add any organic compounds or traditional polymeric compounds to treated water. The scale inhibiting composition includes molecular clusters of polyammonium bisulfate (PABS), which can interact physically, chemically, or physio-chemically with one or more ions in the water or water-containing system being treated. That interaction inhibits scale accretion and/or removes previously formed scale.
