Sintered Glass Bead Filter With Active Microbial Destruction

View page
US Patent:
6783740, Aug 31, 2004
Filed:
Sep 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/261268
Inventors:
Mary W. Colby - West Hartford CT
Andre E. Berghmans - Bethpagen NY
Donald DiMarzio - Northport NY
Ronald Pirich - Islip NY
Assignee:
Northrop Grumman Corporation - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
B01J 1908
US Classification:
4221863, 422121, 422 24
Abstract:
A microbicidal filter system having superior drop pressure and low complexity is provided, as well as a method for producing the same. The system comprises a plurality of glass beads having pores formed therebetween for the flow of air therethrough. The sintered glass beads are coated in a transition metal oxide and water. An ultraviolet light source is used to cause a photocatalytic reaction between the transition metal oxide and water. Free hydroxyl radicals with microbicidal properties are produced. Urethane foam may be inserted between the glass beads before sintering in order to cause a bimodal pore size distribution, and particulates disposed on the glass beads may be added to alter surface activity.

Abstract:
Methods of producing a multiferroic thin film material. The method includes the steps of providing a multiferroic precursor solution, subjecting the precursor solution to spin casting to produce a spin cast film, and heating the spin cast film. The precursor solution may include Bi(NO). 5HO and Fe(NO). 9HO in ethylene glycol to produce a bismuth ferrite film. Further, the thin film may be utilized in varied technological areas, including memory devices for information storage.

Method For Producing A Self Decontaminating Surface

View page
US Patent:
62353519, May 22, 2001
Filed:
Jan 22, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/235969
Inventors:
Donald DiMarzio - Northport NY
Ronald G. Pirich - Islip NY
John F. Klein - Port Washington NY
Assignee:
Northrop Grumman Corporation - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
C23C 410
A62D 300
US Classification:
427453
Abstract:
A method for producing a self decontaminating surface to decontaminate chemical and biological contaminants that are deposited on the surface and decontaminatable through reaction with free hydroxyl radicals. The method first includes determination of a surface to be treated and which is exposable to ultraviolet light. Second, a coating of nanoparticles of a transition metal oxide, non-limitedly exemplified by anatase titanium dioxide, is applied to the chosen surface. Application of the coating is accomplished by spraying heated nanoparticles or clusters thereof from a feed stock onto the surface to form a nanoparticle coating, with the nanoparticles being at a temperature of at least about 750. degree. C. upon exit from a spray apparatus and of a size between about 5 nm and 100 nm. Finally, the treated surface is exposed to ultraviolet light and water moisture, either naturally from the environment or artifically, to thereby catalytically form free hydroxyl radicals that thereafter react with the contaminants to render them generally harmless.
