Publication number: 20120061045Abstract: Coated membranes comprise a porous desiccant-loaded polymer substrate that is coated on one surface with a thin layer of water permeable polymer. Such membranes are particularly suitable for use in enthalpy exchangers and other applications involving exchange of moisture and optionally heat between gas streams with little or no mixing of the gas streams through the membrane. Such membranes have favorable heat and humidity transfer properties, have suitable mechanical properties, are resistant to the crossover of gases when the membranes are either wet or dry, and are generally low cost.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2010Publication date: March 15, 2012Applicant: DPOINT TECHNOLOGIES INC.Inventor: Ryan Nicholas Huizing

Publication number: 20120058077Abstract: Methods and compositions effective for at least a week for prevention of microbial colony growth on a surface, for example an inanimate surface, where the surface is covered with a dry or substantially dry film formed from a composition comprising a polyvinyl alcohol and a quaternary ammonium compound. The film may be formed in situ by coating the surface with a solution or emulsion comprising a polyvinyl alcohol and a quaternary ammonium compound and then causing or allowing it to dry or substantially dry.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2011Publication date: March 8, 2012Applicant: Novapharm Research (Australia) PTY LTDInventor: Steven Kritzler
