Title: Glass/polymer composites and methods of making

Full Record
Other Related Research

The present invention relates to new glass/polymer composites and methods for making them. More specifically, the invention is glass/polymer composites having phases that are at the molecular level and thereby practicably indistinguishable. The invention further discloses making molecular phase glass/polymer composites by mixing a glass and a polymer in a compatible solvent.

Methods of making metallic glass foil laminate composites

Patent Vianco, Paul T. ; Fisher, Robert W. ; Hosking, Floyd M. ; Zanner, Frank J.

A process for the fabrication of a rapidly solidified foil laminate composite. An amorphous metallic glass foil is flux treated and coated with solder. Before solidification of the solder the foil is collected on a take-up spool which forms the composite into a solid annular configuration. The resulting composite exhibits high strength, resiliency and favorable magnetic and electrical properties associated with amorphous materials. The composite also exhibits bonding strength between the foil layers which significantly exceeds the bulk strength of the solder alone.

Phosphazene polymer containing composites and method for making phosphazene polymer containing composites

Patent Allen, Charles A. ; Grey, Alan E. ; McCaffrey, Robert R. ; Simpson, Brenda M. ; Stone, Mark L.

A composite is produced by first coating a reinforcing material with an inorganic phosphazene compound and then polymerizing the phosphazene compound so as to confer superior thermal, physical and chemical resistance qualities to the composite.

Pyrophoric metal-carbon foam composites and methods of making the same

Patent Gash, Alexander E ; Satcher, Jr., Joe H. ; Simpson, Randall L ; Baumann, Theodore F ; Worsley, Marcus A

A method for creating a pyrophoric material according to one embodiment includes thermally activating a carbon foam for creating micropores therein; contacting the activated carbon foam with a liquid solution comprising a metal salt for depositing metal ions in the carbon foam; and reducing the metal ions in the foam to metal particles. A pyrophoric material in yet another embodiment includes a pyrophoric metal-carbon foam composite comprising a carbon foam having micropores and mesopores and a surface area of greater than or equal to about 2000 m.sup.2/g, and metal particles in the pores of the carbon foam. Additional methods andmore » materials are also disclosed.« less

Composites comprising novel RTIL-based polymers, and methods of making and using same

Patent Gin, Douglas ; Carlisle, Trevor ; Noble, Richard ; Nicodemus, Garret ; McDanel, William ; Cowan, Matthew

The invention includes compositions comprising curable imidazolium-functionalized poly(room-temperature ionic liquid) copolymers and homopolymers. The invention further includes methods of preparing and using the compositions of the invention. The invention further includes novel methods of preparing thin, supported, room-temperature ionic liquid-containing polymeric films on a porous support. In certain embodiments, the methods of the invention avoid the use of a gutter layer, which greatly reduces the overall gas permeance and selectivity of the composite membrane. In other embodiments, the films of the invention have increased gas selectivity and permeance over films prepared using methods described in the prior art.
