Introduction
Maurice Bontems is a notable inventor based in Pagny sur Moselle, France. He has made significant contributions to the field of composite materials, holding three patents that showcase his innovative processes. His work primarily focuses on the production of sealing components and composite tubes, which have various applications in industries such as manufacturing and filtration.
Latest Patents
One of Bontems' latest patents is a process for producing sealing components from all-carbon composite materials. This process involves creating a stack of preimpregnated carbon fiber and expanded graphite layers, which are then compressed and thermally treated to achieve specific properties. The resulting sealing carbon composite component is designed to have a high deformation level and self-bonding edges, making it suitable for use in heat-exchanger plates and pervaporation modules.
Another significant patent by Bontems is a process for manufacturing composite tubes. This innovative method utilizes a preimpregnated fibrous reinforcing sheet, which is split into a strip and casing portion. A mandrel is then inserted and rotated to roll the strip around it, followed by cross-linking in a plastic case. This process is applicable for creating small diameter tubes, such as fishing rods, golf clubs, and porous tubes for filtering applications.
