Latest Patents
Kokubo's latest patents include innovative solutions for oxygen generating materials and carbon dioxide absorbing materials. His inventions provide an effective transport system and method for live fishery products. The oxygen generating materials are created by packaging solid peroxide and a peroxide decomposition catalyst within a moisture-permeable material. This material has a cup method moisture permeability of more than 20 g/m²/24 hr at 40°C and 90% relative humidity, while remaining impervious to water at normal pressure. Additionally, the carbon dioxide absorbing materials are formulated by packaging alkaline earth metal hydroxide and/or oxide within a gas-permeable material. This material exhibits a Gurley method gas permeability of 0.1 to 3000 sec./100 ml of gas and is also impervious to water at normal pressure. The transport system for live fishery products incorporates these oxygen generating and carbon dioxide absorbing materials, which are sealed inside a transport bag to maintain optimal conditions during transport.
