Disclosed herein are methods of preparing composites from solid elastomer(s) and wet filler(s), as well as products, including composites, vulcanizates, and articles therefrom. The wet filler can have a liquid content of at least 15%. A resulting composite comprises the filler dispersed in the elastomer at a loading of at least 20 phr with a filler yield loss of no more than 10%, wherein the composite has a liquid content of no more than 10% by weight based on total weight of said composite.

Methods of preparing a composite having elastomer and filler

A photo-curable composition for use in additive manufacturing, said composition comprising: a) at least one photocurable monomer or oligomer; b) a photoinitiator for polymerization of the monomer; and, from 0.01 to 1 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of c) CNS-derived materials. Following polymerization, the resulting polymerized composition has a volume resistivity no greater than 10ohm·cm.

Conductive photo-curable compositions for additive manufacturing

CMP processes, tools and slurries utilize metal oxide-polymer composite particles that include metal oxide particles and a polymer core. The metal oxide particles are modified with a modifying agent and are partially or fully embedded within the polymer core. Using these processes, tools and slurries can enhance removal rates, reduce defectivity and increase cleanability with respect to comparable systems and substrates.

Metal oxide-polymer composite particles for chemical mechanical planarization

Methods for production of carbon black using high temperature feedstock at temperatures exceeding about 300&#xb0; C. with fouling control are provided. An apparatus for production of carbon black according to these methods also is provided.

Method for carbon black production using preheated feedstock and apparatus for same

The invention provides fumed silica comprising aggregates that have an aggregate size and a surface area that satisfy particular formulas relating aggregate size to surface area, as well as aggregates that exhibit particular viscosity, power law exponent index, and/or elastic modulus characteristics when dispersed in liquid media. The invention also provides processes of preparing such fumed silica by combining a silica precursor with a stream of combustible gas, combusting the stream, and producing a stream of combusted gas and fumed silica particles, wherein dopants are introduced, the time/temperature profile, or history, of the stream of combusted gas and fumed silica particles is adjusted to allow for post-quench aggregate growth, and/or additional silica precursor is introduced into the stream of combusted gas.

Fumed silica of controlled aggregate size and processes for manufacturing the same

The invention provides a process for the production of fumed silica. The process comprises providing a silicon halide feedstock comprising about 80% to 100% methyltrichlorosilane, combining the silicon halide feedstock with hydrogen gas and oxygen gas to form a reactant mixture, discharging the reactant mixture out of a burner, and combusting the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas of the reactant mixture so as to hydrolyze the silicon halide feedstock to produce fumed silica. Hydrogen (H) is present in a mole fraction of about 0.11 or less based on the reactant mixture, and/or the velocity of the reactant mixture upon exiting the burner is about 25 m/s or more.

Process for the production of fumed silica

Metal oxides and metals are described. The metal oxides and metals, such as silica, are preferably obtained by removing a removable template to obtain a metal oxide or metal material. Applications and uses of the material are further described.

Metal and oxides thereof and methods to make same

Methods of producing carbon black in a multi-stage reaction are described. Also described is carbon black formed from the processes.

Carbon black and multi-stage process for making same

The inventive method of producing silicon comprises reacting gaseous trichlorosilane with hydrogen to deposit silicon onto a substrate and to produce silicon tetrachloride by-product, vaporizing the silicon tetrachloride by-product to form gaseous silicon tetrachloride, converting the gaseous silicon tetrachloride to finely divided silicon, forming a silicon melt by melting the finely divided silicon, and forming solid silicon from the silicon melt.

Production of silicon through a closed-loop process

A method of preparing a dispersion of aggregate metal oxide particles having a pre-selected average aggregate particle diameter comprising pre-selecting a desired percent-reduction in the average aggregate particle diameter of the metal oxide particles, providing a dispersion standard pertaining to a dispersion of the aggregate metal oxide particles, wherein the dispersion standard correlates (i) the solids concentration of the dispersion with (ii) the percent-reduction in the aggregate particle diameter of the aggregate metal oxide particles that occurs when the dispersion is milled in a high-shear mixer, and preparing and milling a dispersion of the aggregate metal oxide particles in a high-shear milling device at a solids concentration that is within 10% of the solids concentration determined by the standard to provide a dispersion of aggregate metal oxide particles having the desired average aggregate particle diameter. Also provided is a method for reducing the average aggregate particle diameter of aggregate metal oxide particles, and a dispersion prepared by the method.
