  • Melanin-based chemical protective materials
    Patent number: 11162212
    Abstract: The application of melanin to fabric improves resistance to chemical pass-through, with possible application in protective garments, shelters, and filtration materials.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 19, 2019
    Date of Patent: November 2, 2021
    Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Zheng Wang, Brandy J. White, Gaurav J. Vora, Martin H. Moore

  • Sorbent Design for Improved Glycerol Adsorption
    Publication number: 20170283722
    Abstract: Mesoporous organosilica sorbents are effective to remove contaminants (such as glycerol or detergent) from biodiesel. Contacting biodiesel with various a mesoporous organosilica sorbents comprising phenyl and sulfonate moieties resulted in the contaminants being absorbed by the sorbent and thus removed from the biodiesel.
    Type: Application
    Filed: March 29, 2017
    Publication date: October 5, 2017
    Inventors: Brian Melde, Brandy J. White, Martin H. Moore

  • Elastomeric composites with tether-containing, conducting polymers for nanoscale diffusion control
    Patent number: 8931114
    Abstract: A redox-active conductive polymer includes a charged tether. An interpenetrating network including such a conducting polymer can be switched between two states of diffusivity (porosity) by application of a voltage. Such a material can be useful in breathable protective clothing, controlled release, intelligent sensing/filtration, novel separation processes, nanomanufacturing, and other areas.
    Type: Grant
