Available Technologies by Category
Crosslinked Membranes for Natural Gas Purification	Better separation - achieved better CO2/CH4 separation than commercial polyimide membranes Cheaper Versatile in production - crosslinking can be done in various chemical means depending on application demands and still result in plasticization resistance and improved gas separation performance	6419
Atomic Layer-by-Layer Deposition of Platinum	Increase the utilization efficiency of platinum Reduce the materials cost of fuel cells Enhancement for certain catalytic reactions	6376
Method for Intracochlear and Vestibular Magnetic Stimulation	Provides hearing- magnetic fields couple with auditory neurons to produce excitation perceived by the brain was a sound signal Better sound quality- more precise frequency resolution produces better sound quality More reliable signal and decreased sound quality degradation- intervening tissues between array and auditory neurons are no longer a carrier for signals, which will prevent attenuation signal interference	7485
Fast Evaporating Polymers and Copolymers Cross-linking	Incorporation of small molecules that are capable of amplification Residue reduction Waste elimination	7472, 7645
Hairbrush Inspired by Cat Tongue Grooming Mechanics	Easy to clean: Easy removal of hair between bristles Adaptable: Can conform over any curved surface Effective: Claw-like shape of the spines enables a firm grip to any snag	7460
Incorporation of Phase Change Materials into Fibers	Improved thermally modulated fibers with high mass loading Implementing a heat/sink source directly into the fiber next to the sorbent material Enhanced pressure swing adsorption processes	7459
Method for Clinical T-Cell Expansion	Higher cell densities Protection from high shear production environments Reduced initial and operating cost	7434
