  • Publication number: 20170169403
    Abstract: Embodiments allocate and synchronize virtual currency balance of a user among multiple user devices. A user profile is maintained at a central server. The user profile stores a total virtual currency balance and a designation of multiple user devices associated with the user. The total virtual currency balance may be divided among and allocated to the multiple user devices, for example, based on usage data associated with each user device. The portion of the total virtual currency balance allocated to each user device may be stored locally at a local wallet of the corresponding user device. The local virtual currency balance on a user device may be used to purchase goods or services, such as playing a game. If the locally stored virtual currency balance of a given user device runs low, the user device may request additional virtual currency from other user devices without contacting the central server.

  • Publication number: 20100022422
    Abstract: A process for producing a nanographite dispersion in a fluid wherein the thermal conductivity of the dispersion is enhanced from the base fluid by more than 10% for a 1% graphite dispersion. A high purity graphite with high crystallinity and reduced surface damage and oxidation is selected as the starting material. The starting material is subjected to a process of wet media milling in the presence of dispersant and solvent fluid. The mill temperature is controlled to control and reduce surface damage to yield a nanographite with flake shape and controlled aspect ratio until a particle size average of 300 nm diameter and 50 nm is obtained. The process recycles a portion of the milled material to increase the ratio of small particle distribution to large particles in an intermediate product with small and large particle bi-modal distribution. The large particle distribution is removed by a separation process such as centrifugation or filtration.

  • Publication number: 20090131289
    Abstract: The introduction of nanotubes in a liquid provides a means for changing the physical and/or chemical properties of the liquid. Improvements in heat transfer, electrical properties, viscosity, and lubricity can be realized upon dispersion of nanotubes in liquids; however, nanotubes behave like hydrophobic particles and tend to clump together in liquids. Methods of preparing stable dispersions of nanotubes are described and surfactants/dispersants are identified which can disperse carbon nanotubes in aqueous and petroleum liquid medium. The appropriate dispersant is chosen for the carbon nanotube and the water or oil based medium and the dispersant is dissolved into the liquid medium to form a solution. The carbon nanotube is added to the dispersant containing the solution with agitation, ultrasonication, and/or combinations thereof.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel use of nanomaterials as a viscosity modifier and thermal conductivity improver for gear oil and other lubricating oil compositions. The gear oils of the instant invention have a higher viscosity index, higher shear stability, and improved thermal conductivity compared to currently available gear oils. The preferred nanoparticles also impart a reduction in the coefficient of friction, including reduced friction in the boundary lubrication regime.
