Government Owned Inventions Available for Licensing
AGENCY: National Institute of Standards and Technology, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of Government Owned Inventions Available for Licensing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The inventions listed below are owned by the U.S. Government,
as represented by the Department of Commerce, and are available for
licensing in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 207 and 37 CFR Part 404 to
achieve expeditious commercialization of results of federally funded
research and development.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Technical and licensing information on
these inventions may be obtained by writing to: Marcia Salkeld,
National Institute of Standards and Technology, Office of Technology
Commercialization, Physics Building, Room B-256, Gaithersburg, MD
20899; Fax 301-869-2751. Any request for information should include the
NIST Docket No. and Title for the relevant invention as indicated
below.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The inventions available for licensing are:
NIST Docket No. 90-031
Title: Detecting Polymer Solidification During Injection Molding.
Description: New NIST technology makes it possible to determine the
optimum time for opening a mold during an injection molding process.
The invention indicates the solidification of a polymer through changes
in the fluorescence radiation from a dye which has been doped into the
polymer.
NIST Docket No. 92-058
Title: Perflourinated Ionomer Membrane Invention.
Description: This NIST invention describes a perflourinated ionomer
membrane having improved transport characteristics. A surfactant
species is added to a polymer mixture prior to film casting. The
resulting membranes have a measurably altered membrane microstructure
and improved transport characteristics over prior art membranes. This
NIST invention describes the method of producing the improved
membranes. The membranes of this NIST invention are useful in a number
of separation processes, including the separation of NH3 from
gaseous and liquid mixtures, in the production of NaOH and Cl2 gas
from the electrolytic dissolution of NaCl, in the separation of toxic
and radioactive metals from aqueous streams, and in solid polymer
electrolyte H2O2 fuel cells.
NIST Docket No. 94-028
Title: Cable Arrangement and Platform for Stabilized Load Lifting.
Description: NIST researchers have designed a cable arrangement and
platform that completely stabilizes a load during lifting. The
invention is attachable to both boom and tower cranes, and is useful
for tasks such as loading cargo onto ships and moving materials at
construction sites.
