Patent number: 6770724Abstract: Method is provided for selectively opening rings of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) compounds to from functionalized derivatives thereof or new POSS species. Per the inventive method, the POSS compound is reacted with an acid to selectively cleave bonds in the POSS rings to add functionalities thereto for grafting, polymerization or catalysis, to thus form new familes of POSS derived compounds. Also provided are the new compounds so formed. Method is also provided for expanding rings of POSS compounds. Per the inventive method, a POSS compound is reacted with silane reagents to obtain an expanded POSS framework with added Si ring substituends to form new families of POSS compounds. Also provided are the new compounds so formed.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2001Date of Patent: August 3, 2004Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: Joseph D.

Patent number: 6767640Abstract: A method of protecting dyes printed on print media against ozonolysis is provided. The method comprises: (a) providing a first reaction product comprising the reaction of a phenylenediamine or derivative thereof (an anti-ozonant) with a silica or silicate; and (b) reacting the first reaction product in the presence of a water-free solvent with silica groups to form a second reaction product. Also provided is the reaction product resulting from the reaction of (1) the anti-ozonant-silica (or silicate) and (2) silica groups on a substrate. The anti-ozonant-silica (or silicate) is covalently attached to the particles of silica in the media and cannot escape or evaporate away. The use of phenylenediamines as anti-ozonants solves the problem of the fading of dyes on porous media by ozone pollution.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2002Date of Patent: July 27, 2004Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventor: John R Moffatt
