With a total of three patents to his name, Bonnefon's work has the potential to impact various industries.
Latest Patents
One of Alain Bonnefon's latest patents is for a reinforced plastic material and a process for its production. This invention involves a composite plastic material with a thermoplastic matrix that contains at least 5% by weight of a polyethylene with a very high molecular weight. The reinforcing polymer is composed of fine particles that are elongated into fibrils, which significantly enhance the strength of the composite material.
Another notable patent is for the production of polyolefin-reinforced rubber products. This invention describes a flexible, homogeneous rubbery product that includes a matrix of either natural or synthetic elastomer. It uniformly disperses at least 5% by weight of a crystalline polyolefin with a molecular weight of 500,000 or more. The polyolefin is primarily in the form of fine particles that are elongated into fibrils with a diameter smaller than 5 microns, resulting in a product that exhibits exceptional resistance to elongation in at least one direction.
