Publication number: 20100218377Abstract: The object of this invention is to provide a hybrid composite journal bearing which is constructed so that a composite liner is positioned on an inner surface of a metal housing having a circular cross-section, thus preventing a journal from being damaged or seized to the bearing, due to friction between the metal or composite journal and the journal bearing. The hybrid composite journal bearing (210) includes a metal housing (211) which is secured on an outer surface thereof to a bearing system and has a circular cross-section. A composite liner (212) is laminated to an inner surface of the metal housing (211) with a uniform thickness so as to minimize friction between the journal bearing and a journal.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2010Publication date: September 2, 2010Applicants: Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Samsung Heavy Ind. Co., Ltd.Inventors: Dai Gil Lee, Hyoung Geun Kim, Seong Su Kim, Kyung Kun Bang

Patent number: 7485282Abstract: A process is described for the synthesis of metal oxides in a nanometric particle form that cannot be easily obtained by conventional bulk synthesis techniques. The method makes use of Colloid Occluded Carbons (COC) and Colloid Imprinted Carbons (CIC) as reagents and as templating agents for the preparation of metal oxides in nanometric particle form. The nanometric particles are suitable useful in the field of chemical catalysis, particularly for petroleum refining when in porous form, and as sensors, optical wave guides, and coatings.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2005Date of Patent: February 3, 2009Assignee: Board of Trustees of Michigan State UniversityInventors: Thomas J.
