20080299320 | IMPACT RESISTANT ROOFING SHINGLES AND PROCESS OF MAKING SAME - An impact resistant roofing shingle which includes an asphalt coated substrate whose unexposed surface is laminated to an organic film. A process of forming that shingle includes the step of applying an organic film, by spraying a latex, by applying a rubber polymer modified asphalt, by compressing a plastic film having a higher melting or decomposition temperature than the melting point of the asphalt coating or by applying an adhesive to which a plastic film is applied to the unexposed surface of the asphalt coated substrate. | 12-04-2008 |
20090191348 | Zone melt recrystallization for inorganic films - ZMR apparatuses provide for controlled temperature flow through the system to reduce energy consumption while providing for desired crystal growth properties. The apparatus can include a cooling system to specifically remove a desired amount of heat from a melted film to facilitate crystallization. Furthermore, the apparatus can have heated walls to create a background temperature within the chamber that reduces energy use through the reduction or elimination of cooling for the chamber walls. The apparatuses and corresponding methods can be used with inorganic films directly or indirectly associated with a porous release layer that provides thermal insulation with respect to an underlying substrate. If the recrystallized film is removed from the substrate, the substrates can be reused. The methods can be used for large area silicon films with thicknesses from 2 microns to 100 microns, which are suitable for photovoltaic applications as well as electronics applications. | 07-30-2009 |

20100316808 | Polyolefin Compositions for Coating Applications - A method for coating articles by melting and applying a composition to at least a portion of the article to be coated and then cooling the composition to form a coated article wherein the composition comprises a propylene-based polymer having a weight molecular weight of about 10,000 to about 100,000; a percent crystallinity of about 5% to about 40%; and a melt index of about 30 dg/min or more. | 12-16-2010 |
20100323113 | Method to Synthesize Graphene - A method of using ion implantation techniques to create graphene is disclosed. Carbon ions are implanted in a substrate, such as a metal foil, using a plasma doping system or a beam line implanter. The implant is performed at an elevated temperature, to allow a large number of carbon ions to be absorbed by the foil. As the temperature is reduced, the excessive number of carbon atoms causes the foil to be saturated, and the carbon atoms diffuse to the surface, thereby producing graphene. In another embodiment, a plasma doping system is used, where a plasma containing carbon and other species is created. These additional species are also implanted, thereby causing the diffused atoms to contain both carbon and the additional species. | 12-23-2010 |
