Abstract:
Polymerize ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) in a polymerization process using dinonylnaphthalenesulfonic acid (DNNSA) as the dopant and Fe(III) p-toluenesulfonate (Fe (III) p-TSA) as the oxidizing agent to produce an organically soluble polyethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT).
Abstract:
A flow reactor system and methods having tubing useful as polymerization chamber. The flow reactor has at least one inlet and at least one mixing chamber, and an outlet. The method includes providing two phases, an aqueous phase and a non-aqueous phase and forming an emulsion for introduction into the flow reactor.
Abstract:
An example method includes: forming a conductive layer on at least a portion of a surface of a substrate, where the substrate comprises a composite material of an aerodynamic structure, and where the conductive layer is configured to provide a conductive path to conduct an electric current generated by a lightning strike to an electrically-grounded location; depositing an insulating layer on the conductive layer; removing one or more portions of the insulating layer to form respective gaps in the insulating layer and expose corresponding one or more portions of the conductive layer; and forming a resistive-heater layer on the insulating layer such that the resistive-heater layer fills the respective gaps in the insulating layer and contacts the corresponding one or more portions of the conductive layer, such that when electric power is provided to the conductive layer, the electric power is communicated to the resistive-heater layer thereby generating heat therefrom.

Abstract:
Corrosion inhibition systems, including coated substrates, coating materials and corrosion inhibition compounds, and methods of making the same are disclosed. These systems and methods include corrosion inhibition compounds that are responsive to corrosion at a surface, releasing active inhibitor groups upon a corrosion stimulus. The active inhibitor groups are selected to block corrosion at the surface by inhibiting oxidation reactions, reduction reactions and/or by forming a passivation layer.

Abstract:
This disclosure relates generally to the discovery of improved methods of reducing corrosion on metals and metal alloys without using hexavalent chromium reagents. More particularly, the disclosure relates to preparing corrosion resistant metals using doped conducting polymers such as polyaniline (PANI) on metal alloys such as aluminum alloys.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide a coating composition that includes a polymer material comprising an electrically conductive polymer; and a coated or partially coated magnetic material comprising a magnetic material and an antioxidant material. Aspects of the present disclosure further provide a method of making a coating composition that includes introducing, under first conditions, a magnetic material to a passivation solution comprising an antioxidant to form a coated (or partially coated) magnetic material; and introducing, under second conditions, the coated (or partially coated) magnetic material to a mixture comprising a polymer material to form a coating composition. Aspects of the present disclosure further provide a coated substrate that includes a film and a substrate, the film including a coating composition that includes an electrically conductive polymer, a magnetic material, and an antioxidant.
