Patent number: 8507231Abstract: Provided herein are high throughput methods for converting starch-containing plant material to ethanol, wherein the conversion process is performed at a small scale. This high-throughput screening platform permits the evaluation of the ethanol obtained from starch-containing plant material in a rapid and efficient manner. The methods include obtaining a plurality of samples of starch-containing plant material and drying the samples to achieve a desired moisture level. The dried samples are liquefied under conditions sufficient to hydrolyze the starch-containing plant material to soluble dextrinized substrates. The liquefied samples are fermented in small volume headspace vials for a period of less than about 96 hours, and fermentation is terminated by pasteurization. Ethanol production is evaluated using headspace gas chromatography.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2009Date of Patent: August 13, 2013Assignee: Syngenta Participations AGInventors: Jason Abbas, George Aux, Joe Byrum, My Nguyen, Kirk Noel, Mark P Seymour

Patent number: 7309647Abstract: A flip chip package, apparatus and technique in which a ball grid array composed of a doped eutectic Pb/Sn solder composition is used. The dopant in the Pb/Sn solder forms a compound or complex with the phosphorous residue from the electroless nickel plating process that is mixable with the Pb/Sn solder. The phosphorous containing compound or complex prevents degradation of the solder/under bump metallization bond associated with phosphorus residue. The interfacial solder/under bump metallization bond is thereby strengthened. This results in fewer fractured solder bonds and greater package reliability.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2005Date of Patent: December 18, 2007Assignee: Altera CorporationInventor: My Nguyen

Publication number: 20070241307Abstract: A crosslinkable thermal interface material is produced by combining at least one rubber compound, at least one amine resin and at least one thermally conductive filler. This interface material takes on the form of a liquid or “soft gel”. The gel state is brought about through a crosslinking reaction between the at least one rubber compound composition and the at least one amine resin composition. Once the foundation composition that comprises at least one rubber compound, at least one amine resin, and at least one thermally conductive filler has been prepared, the composition must be compared to the needs of the electronic component, vendor, or electronic product to determine if a phase change material is needed to change some of the physical properties of the composition.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2007Publication date: October 18, 2007Inventor: My Nguyen
