The syntheses can take place on a thermally oxidized silicon surface placed inside a furnace prior to a reaction. The setup can have many variables that could affect the resulting CNT arrays, including flow rate and composition of carrier gas, flow rate and composition of precursor solution, and temperature. By varying such variables the density of the resulting CNT arrays can be controlled.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2012Publication date: January 9, 2014Inventors: Jordan R. RANEY, Chiara DARAIO

Publication number: 20140011009Abstract: A silicon-based coating composition for a wide range of mold surfaces, which composition is formed from a mixture of constituents comprising appropriate portions of silazane, siloxane, and silane, and optionally organic solvent. The composition, after curing, results in an extreme release product that is non-transferable to the finished part, allowing for proper adhesion of coatings or adhesives to the finished surface without additional surface preparation. The cured coatings are ultrathin, having a thickness between 0.1 ?m and 3 ?m, and having a hardness between about 4H and about 9H.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2013Publication date: January 9, 2014Applicant: BURNING BUSH GROUP, LLCInventor: Chris Fish
