Electrically Conductive Polymeric Materials And Use Thereof, Ravi F. Saraf

Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering: Patents

A polymer blend composition, capable of being made electrically conductive by application of heat having an electrically conductive upon doping polymer in undoped form; the undoped polymer is selected from the group consisting of substituted and unsubstituted polyparaphenylenevinylenes, polyanilines, polyazines, polythiophenes, poly-p-phenylene sulfides, polyfuranes, polyselenophenes, polyacetylenes filtered from soluble precursors and combinations and blends thereof, compounded and blended at a molecular scale with a dielectric polymer; wherein the dielectric polymer is selected from the group consisting of interpolymers of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene, acetal acrylic liquid crystal polymers, polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, polyester, polyetherimide, polyethersulfone, polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyphenylene oxide, polyphenylene sulfide, polypropylene, polystyrene, …

Method For Making A Heavy Wax Composition, Stephen J. Miller, Gerald P. Huffman, Naresh Shah

Chemical and Materials Engineering Faculty Patents

The invention includes a process of making a wax composition including: a process for making a heavy wax composition including the steps of (1) contacting a waste plastics feed containing primarily polyethylene in a pyrolysis zone at sub-atmospheric pressure, whereby at least a portion of the waste plastics feed is cracked, thereby forming a pyrolysis zone effluent including 1-olefins and n-paraffins; and (2) passing the pyrolysis zone effluent to a hydrotreating zone, for contacting with a hydrotreating catalyst at catalytic conditions.
