Title: Innovations by David V Braddon
Introduction
David V Braddon is an accomplished inventor based in Charleston Heights, SC (US). He holds a total of 4 patents that showcase his expertise in developing innovative solutions, particularly in the field of anti-corrosive compositions and cement formulations.
Latest Patents
One of his notable patents involves corrosion inhibitors. This invention discloses an anti-corrosive composition that comprises the condensate of a polyamine, such as diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, or aminoethylethanol amine, combined with a 21 or 22 carbon fatty polycarboxylic acid or acid anhydride. The composition may also include the condensation products of the aforementioned polyamines with either tall oil fatty acids or Rosin S. Additionally, propargyl alcohol has been found to enhance the anti-corrosive effects of this composition, making it particularly useful in well drilling operations where a strong inorganic acid is utilized to facilitate crude oil flow.
Another significant patent by Braddon is related to low porosity aggregate-containing cement compositions. This invention discloses cement compositions that comprise hydraulic cement containing substantially no calcium sulfate, at least 0.1% alkali bicarbonate by weight based on dry ground cement, and at least 0.1% of a lignosulfonate or sulfonated lignin by weight based on dry ground cement. The aggregate-containing cement composition is produced at a water-to-cement ratio of between 0.4 and 0.15, and methods for producing these low porosity aggregate-containing cements are also disclosed.
