  • Anti-fouling coating compositions and methods for preventing the fouling of surfaces
    Patent number: 9028603
    Abstract: A xerogel film exhibiting antifouling properties. The films are made using long-chain alkyltrialkoxysilanes, short-chain alkyltrialkoxysilanes, aminoalkyltrialkoxysilanes, alkylaminoalkyltrialkoxysilanes, dialkylaminoalkyltrialkoxysilanes, and perfluororalkyltrialkoxysilanes as sol-gel precursors. The films can be used as coatings on surfaces to reduce or eliminate fouling resulting from attachment and/or growth of biofoulants such as algae, diatoms, bacteria, barnacles, and biofilms.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 11, 2012
    Date of Patent: May 12, 2015
    Assignee: The Research Foundation of State University of New York
    Inventors: Michael Ray Detty, Frank V. Bright, Stephanie Marie Bennett, Anastasiya Sokolova

  • Method for preparation of an intermediate dye product
    Patent number: 6458967
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method for the synthesis of an intermediate dye product having the following formula: wherein L is S, Te, or Se; R1 and R2 are either the same or different aryl or alkyl compounds; R3 is hydrogen or a short chain alkyl group; and Z is an anion. The process to formulate this intermediate compound entails reacting an R1-acetylene compound with an R2-acetylene compound (compounds A) into an enol ether compound with the R1 and/or R2 constituents (compound D). And from compound D, it forms into an intermediate dye compound having an L-based cyclic ring with the R1 and/or R2 constituents (compound F). With compound F the desired dye can be made with a greater overall yield for mass production.
