William G. Borner 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).

  • Electrodeposition of ruthenium-iridium alloy
    Patent number: 4189358
    Abstract: Ruthenium-iridium electrodeposits are prepared from aqueous acid solution containing ruthenium, iridium, a fluoborate salt, fluoboric acid, and optionally sulfamic acid. The baths are especially useful for preparing insoluble anodes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 14, 1978
    Date of Patent: February 19, 1980
    Assignee: The International Nickel Company, Inc.
    Inventors: Anthony J. Scarpellino, Jr, William G. Borner
  • Composite electrode for electrolytic processes
    Patent number: 4157943
    Abstract: A composite electrode especially suitable for electrowinning processes comprising an electrically conductive substrate having on at least a part of its surface a multilayer coating, said coating comprising:(a) a barrier layer directly on the substrate;(b) a ruthenium dioxide-containing non-electrodeposited surface layer; and(c) between the barrier layer and the surface layer, an intermediate layer consisting of an electroplated ruthenium-iridium deposit, said ruthenium-iridium deposit being at least partially in an oxidized state.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 14, 1978
    Date of Patent: June 12, 1979
    Assignee: The International Nickel Company, Inc.
    Inventors: Anthony J. Scarpellino, Jr., James McEwen, William G. Borner
  • Method for producing electrolytic nickel in particulate forms under condition of high and variable internal stress
    Patent number: 4147597
    Abstract: An electrodeposition mandrel for nickel electrodeposition having islands of bare metal surface finished by grit blasting with either cast iron grit or aluminum oxide grit to a RMS surface finish of about 130 to 300.mu. inch when cast iron grit is employed and about 25 to about 150.mu. inch when aluminum oxide grit is employed.
