  • Pitch compositions for spinning into carbon articles and methods relating thereto
    Patent number: 12435450
    Abstract: A pitch composition suitable for spinning may comprise: a pitch having a softening point temperature (Tsp) of 400° C. or less, and an oxidation onset temperature (OOT) at least 10° C. below the Tsp at a ramp rate of 10° C./min. A carbon fiber may comprise: a carbon fiber produced from a pitch composition, wherein the pitch composition comprises: a pitch having a softening point temperature (Tsp) of 400° C. or less, and an oxidation onset temperature (OOT) at least 10° C. below the Tsp at a ramp rate of 10° C./min.
    Type: Grant

  • Catalyst Compositions and Precursors, Processes for Making the Same and Syngas Conversion Processes
    Publication number: 20220161243
    Abstract: Disclosed are novel catalyst compositions, catalyst precursors, processes for making catalyst precursors, processes for making catalyst compositions, and processes for converting syngas. The catalytic component in the catalyst composition can comprise a metal carbide and/or a metal nitride. This disclosure is particularly useful for converting syngas via the Fischer-Tropsch reactions to make olefins and/or alcohols.
