  • Organic-inorganic hybrid particle material and polymer compositions containing same
    Patent number: 8008395
    Abstract: Particulate materials useful as fillers, reinforcing agents, radioopacifiers, or impact modifiers. The particulate material has an average particle size range of about 10,000 nm or less and comprises an organic-inorganic hybrid material that has a ceramic material network having organic polymer segments distributed throughout the ceramic network. The ceramic network may be prepared by a sol-gel technique. The particulate material may be compounded in thermoplastic polymer compositions useful in a variety of applications such as preparation of medical device components.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 27, 2005
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2011
    Assignee: Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc.
    Inventors: Michele Zoromski, Liliana Atanasoska, Scott Schewe, Mark Wolters, Robert Warner
