Siloxane removal from gases using lignite-enhanced activated carbons and adsorbent media used therefor

Abstract: A method of removing siloxanes from a gas stream includes flowing the gas stream that carries siloxanes through an adsorbent media to remove at least part of the siloxanes from the gas stream, wherein the adsorbent media comprises lignite-based activated carbon. A spent adsorbent media is provided that contains the lignite-based activated carbon through which a gas stream containing siloxanes has been at least partially purified, and which may be regenerated.

Carbon black exhibitng superior treadwear/hysteresis performance

Abstract: Superior treadwear/hysteresis carbon blacks having a CTAB of about 90-98 m2/g, an N?2?SA of about 92-102 m?2?/g, an I?2? No. of 90-98 m?2?/g, a DBP of about 126-136 cc/100g, a CDBP of about 102-110 cc/100g, and a Tint of about 104-112. Also disclosed are rubber compositions containing the carbon blacks which exhibit superior treadwear/hysteresis performance properties.

Method of making nanoparticulates and use of the nanoparticulates to make products using a flame reactor

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of making nanoparticulates in a flame reactor, the nanoparticulates having controlled properties such as weight average particle size, composition and morphology. The nanoparticulates made with the method of present invention may be tailored to a specific weight average particle size range, such as from about 1 nm to about 500 nm. In addition to weight average particle size, the nanoparticulates made with the method of the present invention may include a variety of materials including metals, ceramics, organic materials, and combinations thereof. Moreover, the method of the present invention allows control over the morphology of the nanoparticulates, which allows the production of nanoparticulates with any desired morphology including spheroidal and unagglonj^ied; and agglomerated (aggregated) into larger units of hard aggregates.

Thermally Stable SERS Taggants

Abstract: An optically active particle and a method of manufacturing said particles, plus methods of tagging a material of interest with said particles are disclosed. The particle comprises a surface-enhanced spectroscopy (SES) active core and a SES active reporter associated with the SES core wherein the particle produces a measurable and thermally stable SES spectrum upon optical interrogation. As used in the disclosure, thermally stable may be defined as maintaining a measurable SES spectrum after the particle or any material tagged with the particle has been exposed to a temperature substantially higher than room temperature.
