Patents by Inventor Patrick Emmett Fuller

Patrick Emmett Fuller 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).

  • Modified metal-organic framework (MOF) compositions, process of making and process of use thereof
    Patent number: 11958033
    Abstract: This invention relates to modified MOF materials, methods of preparing them and processes using them. A modified MOF of the invention is modified by impregnating a MOF with an inorganic metal salt. The starting MOF contains at least one linker or ligand which contains an aryl amino group as part of its structure. These modified MOFs are able to adsorb either basic or acidic toxic industrial compounds (TIC). The modified MOFs can be used to remove TICs from various gaseous streams such as air.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: April 16, 2024
    Assignee: NuMat Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Mitchell Hugh Weston, William Morris, William Joseph Hoover, Patrick Emmett Fuller, John Paul Siegfried, Randi Danielle Groy, Jeffrey Loren Wells, Timothy Chiaan Wang, Edwin Alfonso Argueta Fajardo
  • Activated amino containing metal organic framework (MOF) compositions, process of making and process of use thereof
    Patent number: 11958034
    Abstract: This invention relates to metal organic framework (MOF) compositions, methods of preparing them and methods of using them. The MOF compositions are characterized in that at least a portion of the linker molecule is an amino containing organic linker. The MOF also has a crystal size of greater than 1 ?m and has been treated with an acid wash to provide a MOF in which at least 55% of the amino groups are activated amino groups of the form —NH2. The MOF compositions are useful in adsorbing various contaminants from various gas stream. One specific example is adsorbing NO2 from an air stream.
