Patent number: 10144848Abstract: The invention relates to a curable coating composition, a method for curing a curable coating composition and an article comprising a cured composition. The curable coating composition of the invention comprises a thermally curable component and plasmonic particles. The method of the invention concerns a method for curing a curable coating composition comprising plasmonic particles and comprises: exposing the curable coating composition to light comprising electromagnetic waves that are at least partially concentrated by the plasmonic particles.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2014Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: NEDERLANDSE ORGANISATIE VOOR TOEGEPAST-NATUURWETENSCHAPPELIJK ONDERZOEK TNOInventors: Pascal Jozef Paul Buskens, Nanning Joerg Arfsten, Maurice Christian Danho Mourad, Maria Elizabeth Louise Wouters, Leonardus Johannus Maria Genoveva Dortmans

Patent number: 10046298Abstract: The invention relates to a chemical conversion process and to a process for removing particles from a reaction mixture. The chemical conversion process of the invention includes plasmonic heating of a reaction mixture having at least a one component and plasmonic particles, by exposing the reaction mixture to light having one or more wavelengths which are absorbed by at least part of the plasmonic particles, thereby controlling the reaction rate of one or more chemical reactions.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2017Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: NEDERLANDSE ORGANISATIE VOOR TOEGEPAST-NATUURWETENSCHAPPELIJK ONDERZOEK TNOInventors: Pascal Jozef Paul Buskens, Maurice Christian Danho Mourad, Maria Elizabeth Louise Wouters, Leonardus Johannus Maria Genoveva Dortmans, Earl Lawrence Vincent Goetheer, Nanning Joerg Arfsten

Patent number: 8916618Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for recycling an organic-matrix composite material. The organic-matrix composite material comprises a first component comprising at least one organic matrix polymer and at least one solid second component being compatible with said first component and being structurally different from said first component, wherein said at least one organic polymer has thermosetting properties at room temperature and wherein said polymer comprises thermally reversible cross-links The method of the invention comprises —heating the organic-matrix composite material to a temperature at which at least part of the thermally reversible cross-links cleave and at which temperature the first component as a viscosity of at most 500 Pa·s, as measured by oscillatory measurements on an Anton Paar MCR 301 rheometer using parallel plate geometry; and —separating the at least part of said first component from said second component.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2009Date of Patent: December 23, 2014Assignee: Nederlandse Organisatie voor Toegepast-Natuurwetenschappelijk Onderzoek TNOInventors: Maria Elizabeth Louise Wouters, Rudolf Hartmut Fischer
