Patents by Inventor Neera Satsangi

Neera Satsangi 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).

  • Implant coatings
    Patent number: 7413806
    Abstract: Implants may be coated with a biocompatible coating to improve the biocompatibility of the implant. The biocompatible coating may include a bone growth promoting compound. Such compounds include, but are not limited to, phospholipids, bone morphogenetic proteins, or combinations thereof. The bone growth promoting compound may enhance the rate of bone growth proximate to the implant and the integration of the implant into the surrounding bone.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 17, 2002
    Date of Patent: August 19, 2008
    Assignee: Board of Regents, The University of Texas System
    Inventors: Joo L. Ong, Rajiv K. Satsangi, Neera Satsangi
  • Bridged monomers
    Patent number: 7135589
    Abstract: Liquid crystal monomers and secondary monomers useful to blend with liquid crystal monomers to maintain a nematic state under processing conditions while maintaining low cure shrinkage, particularly suitable for use in dental resin composites.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 30, 2004
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2006
    Assignee: Board of Regents, The University of Texas System
    Inventors: Barry K. Norling, Neera Satsangi
  • Ultra-low shrinkage composite resins based on blended nematic liquid crystal monomers
    Patent number: 7094358
    Abstract: Resin blends comprising liquid crystal monomers and secondary monomers useful to blend with liquid crystal monomers to maintain a nematic state under processing conditions while maintaining low cute shrinkage, particularly suitable for use in dental resin composites.

  • Implant coatings
    Publication number: 20050123765
    Abstract: Implants may be coated with a biocompatible coating to improve the biocompatibiiity of the implant. The biocompatible coating may include a bone growth promoting compound. Such compounds include, but are not limited to, phospholipids, bone morphogenetic proteins, or combinations thereof. The bone growth promoting compound may enhance the rate of bone growth proximate to the implant and the integration of the implant into the surrounding bone.

  • Ultra-low shrinkage composite resins based on blended nematic liquid crystal secondary monomers
    Publication number: 20040206934
    Abstract: Novel secondary monomers for use in monomer blends. The blends remain in a nematic state after the addition of inorganic filler and exhibit low cure shrinkage.
