Publication number: 20110268689Abstract: Photo-crosslinkable antifouling compositions, in particular antibacterial, antifungal and anti-algae ones, which include the combination of at least one telechelic oligoisoprene of a particular formula with an agent for crosslinking the oligoisoprene. The antifouling film is obtained by applying a thin layer of such a liquid composition on a substrate and is crosslinked at room temperature by exposure to visible and/or UV radiations. The film can be used for preventing the occurrence of a biofilm on any surface in a humid or aqueous environment, and can be used as an additive for preparing materials with a view to imparting bacteriostatic and/or bactericidal properties thereto.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2009Publication date: November 3, 2011Applicants: UNIVERSITE DU MAINEInventors: Claude Bunel, Irene Campristron, Claire Hellio, Rachid Jellali, Albert Laguerre, Jean-Luc Mouget, Jean-Francois Pilard

Patent number: 8017193Abstract: A monomeric formulation for creating self-propagating polymer optical waveguides and a system and a method of using the same. The monomeric formulation includes a plurality of unsaturated molecules, a molecule having a structure of R—X—H (e.g., X?O, S, N), and a photoinitiator. The monomeric formulation can further include a free radical inhibitor. The system includes a light source, a reservoir having a monomeric formulation and a patterning apparatus configured to guide a light beam from the light source into the monomeric formulation to form at least one self-propagating polymer waveguide.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2008Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignee: HRL Laboratories, LLCInventors: Chaoyin Zhou, Alan J. Jacobsen
