Latest Patents
One of his latest patents involves structural materials with nearly zero carbon emissions. This innovation provides processes and methods for making and preparing compositions and structural products. The surface area of alumino-silicate based powders is greatly increased, rendering them chemically active. When mixed with water, poly-condensation reactions occur, binding the powders together to form a structural material with negligible carbon emissions. In another embodiment, these functionalized powders can be combined with additives, such as dry aggregates and water, to create a slurry that can be cast into various shapes and rapidly cured. This results in a hardened material with mechanical strength comparable to Portland-cement based concrete products. Additionally, his work includes a method of forming functionalized fly ash particles, which involves bonding oxygen onto the surface of fly ash particles and reacting them with organic compounds to create hydrophobic functionalized particles.
