  • Patent number: 9611450
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the removal of polymer thermosets from the substrates without damaging the substrates. The present invention relates to a process for the removal of polymer thermoset from the substrate retaining the physical and chemical properties of the substrates. The present invention more particularly relates to the use of bio molecules for cleaving polymer thermosets and the process to perform the cleaving.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9449730
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a coating composition for prevention of substrate oxidation/corrosion comprising energy level modulated conjugated polymer in combination with hydrophobic, spherical molecule in a suitable ratio. Particularly the invention relates to coating composition for protecting metal and alloy comprising the derivatives of polythiophene and polyphenylene vinylene with lower energy level, wherein the pores on the polymeric film are filled/blocked with hydrophobic, spherical molecule to enhance the efficiency of polymer against the corrosion.

  • Publication number: 20150018465
    Abstract: The present invention disclosed herein is a reversible switching system that switches surfaces from being hydrophilic to hydrophobic and vice-versa. More particularly, the invention relates to reversible switching system comprising a positively charged conjugated polymer; a micelle and a hydrocarbon component that is affected by a potential such that the system switches from being super hydrophilic to super hydrophobic due to, the polyvalent interaction between surfactant assemblies and delocalized charges of an insoluble polymer results in surface modification of the polymer. These systems find application in antisticking coating, anticontamination coating and wicking surfaces.
