Title: Innovations by Mohammad Nilchian
Introduction
Mohammad Nilchian is an accomplished inventor based in Woodland Hills, California. He holds 2 patents that showcase his innovative contributions to surface-finish compositions and water-based polishes. His work emphasizes enhancing safety and usability in various applications.
Latest Patents
One of his notable inventions is an abrasive-containing surface-finish composition. This invention comprises an effective amount of abrasive particulates designed to enhance the non-slip characteristics of the composition. The abrasive particulates have an average particle size of up to about 100 microns. The surface finish composition can be either water-based or oil-based. In one embodiment, it further includes water, at least one acrylic polymer, and at least one synthetic wax. Optional ingredients may include alkali-soluble resins, leveling agents, water-soluble solvents, plasticizers, defoaming agents, fragrance enhancers, and biocides. These compositions are particularly useful as anti-slip floor finishes.
Another significant invention by Nilchian is a water-based polish. This composition consists of water and particulate abrasive dispersed within it. The abrasive has a Knoop scale hardness of at least about 1000 and an average particle size ranging from about 1 micron up to a U.S. Sieve Series Number of about 50. The composition also includes an effective amount of at least one thickener to maintain a stable dispersion of the abrasive in the water. Additionally, it can contain surfactants and/or chelating agents. A particularly advantageous feature of this water-based polish is that its electrical conductivity is sufficiently reduced, allowing it to be applied using an electrically powered applicator without the risk of electrical shock.
