Jorge Morice 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).

  • Brominated flame retardants and precursors therefor
    Patent number: 8933159
    Abstract: Described are a particular group of novel aromatic hydrocarbon telomers that, on bromination, result in the formation of novel flame retardants having a uniquely beneficial combination of properties. The resultant flame retardants and uses thereof are also described. The disclosure includes descriptions of methods for preparing both the aromatic hydrocarbon telomers and the brominated flame retardant polymers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 30, 2009
    Date of Patent: January 13, 2015
    Assignee: Albemarle Corporation

  • Bromination of telomer mixtures derived from toluene and styrene
    Patent number: 8642821
    Abstract: This invention relates to novel and useful toluene and styrene derived telomer distributions, such distributions being desirable substrates for the preparation of brominated flame retardants.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 30, 2009
    Date of Patent: February 4, 2014
    Assignee: Albemarle Corporation

  • Branched and star-branched styrene polymers, telomers, and adducts, their synthesis, their bromination, and their uses
    Patent number: 8476373
    Abstract: New branched or star-branched styrene polymeric, telomeric, and monomeric product distributions, their preparation, their use as raw materials for bromination to produce flame retardants, the flame retardants themselves, and their use as flame retardants in various polymeric substrates are described.
