A system for sensing the presence and concentration of ethylene in a gas stream includes an ethylene sensor, an ethylene scrubber, a COscrubber, gas flow control valves, a pump, and electrical components to receive and analyze the electrical signals generated by the ethylene sensor as the ethylene concentration in the gas stream changes. The system, in a controlled manner, alternatively feeds quantities of the gas stream being analyzed to the ethylene sensor or through scrubber components of the system. The ethylene sensor comprises conductive polymeric nanofibers functionalized to detect the presence of ethylene and generate an electrical signal that changes as the ethylene concentration changes.

Modular chemiresistive sensor for real-time ethylene monitoring

Methods for producing ceramic films Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (3YSZ) and aluminum titanate (AlTiO), and the physical properties of these films are described. The films produced have thicknesses and integrity suitable for handling and corrosion resistance to electrolytes, porosity, ion permeability and electrical resistivity suitable for use as separators between positive and negative layers for forming electrical batteries, particularly lithium batteries.

Lithium oxyhalide battery separator material

A fluoride ion battery includes a substantially lithium-free anode and cathode. At least one of the anode or cathode contains fluorine, and a substantially lithium-free liquid electrolyte is used for charge transport. The electrolyte is liquid at temperatures below about 200 degrees Celsius, and can be formed from an organic-soluble fluoride salt dissolved in selected classes of solvents.

The present invention relates to a modular chemiresistive sensor. In particular, a modular chemiresistive sensor for hypergolic fuel and oxidizer leak detection, carbon dioxide monitoring and detection of disease biomarkers. The sensor preferably has two gold or platinum electrodes mounted on a silicon substrate where the electrodes are connected to a power source and are separated by a gap of 0.5 to 4.0 &#x3bc;M. A polymer nanowire or carbon nanotube spans the gap between the electrodes and connects the electrodes electrically. The electrodes are further connected to a circuit board having a processor and data storage, where the processor can measure current and voltage values between the electrodes and compare the current and voltage values with current and voltage values stored in the data storage and assigned to particular concentrations of a pre-determined substance such as those listed above or a variety of other substances.

This document provides fire retardant materials, including polymers that include pyridinium salt moieties, or a combination thereof, and phosphine oxide moieties. In some cases, fire retardant polymers provided herein have the following structure: where R1 and R6 are each selected consisting of N, wherein R2 and R7 are each negatively charged counterions, where R3, R4, R8, R9, R11, R13, R14, R15, and R16 are each H or a group including one or more carbon molecules, and where R5, R10, and R12 are each groups including one or more carbon molecules.

A lithium-free, anion based charge transport electrochemical system that uses fluoride ion transporting electrolytes, including ionic liquids, with and without various additives to improve performance, is described. The fluoride ion transporting electrolyte can be wholly or partly an ionic liquid that is typically liquid at temperatures less than 200 degrees Celsius. In other embodiments, electrolytes that remain liquid at less than 100 degrees Celsius are useful.
