Mark V. Grogan 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).

  • Patent number: 11802090
    Abstract: A thermally-insulating composite material with co-shrinkage in the form of an insulating material formed by the inclusion of microballoons in a matrix material such that the microballoons and the matrix material exhibit co-shrinkage upon processing. The thermally-insulating composite material can be formed by a variety of microballoon-matrix material combinations such as polymer microballoons in a preceramic matrix material. The matrix materials generally contain fine rigid fillers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 8, 2021
    Date of Patent: October 31, 2023
    Assignee: Powdermet, Inc.
    Inventors: Brian P. Doud, Mark V. Grogan, Andrew Sherman

  • Publication number: 20140231695
    Abstract: A syntactic foam insulator with co-shrinkage in the form of an insulating material formed by the inclusion of microballoons in a matrix material such that the microballoons and the matrix material exhibit co-shrinkage upon processing. The syntactic foam insulator can be formed by a variety of microballoon-matrix material combinations such as polymer microballoons in a preceramic matrix material. The matrix materials generally contain fine, rigid fillers.
