PATENT: Compositions and Methods for Injectable Composition for an Accomodating Intraocular Lens (June 30, 2016)
The present disclosure relates to injectable compositions and methods of making injectable compositions of moisture curing siloxane polymers for forming accommodating intraocular lenses. In certain embodiments, the moisture curing siloxane polymers are comprised of an organosilicon compound and a hydrolytically sensitive siloxane moiety and have a specific gravity of greater than about 0.95, a number average molecular weight (Mn) greater than about 5,000 or about 20,000 and a weight average molecular weight (Mw) greater than about 20,000 or about 40,000. The disclosure includes accommodating intraocular lenses formed from moisture curing siloxane polymers and having a modulus of elasticity of less than about 6kPa, less than 20% post-cure extractables, refractive index ranging from 1.4 to 1.5 and dioptric range of accommodation of 0D to 10D
PATENT: Silicon Based Electrolyte Solvents for Rechargeable Batteries (January 1, 2014)
Batteries offer a way to provide a portable rechargeable energy source. They are already used in our everyday such as in our automobiles, cell phones and laptops. However, the battery must work in a varying climate as for example many automobiles need to work in the snow as well as high heat so that they do not overheat/deteriorate. Common lithium ion batteries use carbon based electrolytes to transfer the ionic charge across the salt bridge. However, at temperatures greater than 60oC the electrolyte deteriorates and below -10oC the performance decreases 1, 2. Research to date has not found a solution to increase the performance at a wider temperature range and so they are not suitable for a battery powered automobiles. Alternative rechargeable batteries experience the same problem This project is targeted towards using silicon chemistry to create new electrolyte solvents that are capable of transmitting ions at cold temperatures. The way in which it will enhance on current technology is that silicon compounds are very well known to have sub zero crystallization temperatures as well as sub zero glass transition temperatures. This produces compounds that have fluid like properties as low as -100oC. In such cases molecule mobility is higher than in carbon compounds that are typically solid in sub zero temperatures and allows ion transport to be possible where previously it has not been. The new strategy consists of creating a multi-functional ion co-ordinating/transport compound that does not solidify or crystalize at low temperatures.
PATENT: Silicon Based Electrolyte Solvents with Enhanced Architecture for Rechargeable Batteries (January 1, 2014)
This project is targeted towards using silicon chemistry to create new electrolyte solvents that are capable of transmitting ions at cold temperatures while not degrading at higher temperatures. The way in which it will enhance on current technology is that silicon compounds are very well known for their thermal stability in that typically siloxane compounds have sub zero crystallization temperatures and sub zero glass transition temperatures. This produces compounds that have fluid like properties as low as -100oC. These materials however have no capability for ion transport, but using their capability to be functionalized, certain groups will transport the ion rendering the new siloxane compound suitable for batteries. Furthermore, as the crystallization and glass transition temperatures are in the sub zero region they have higher molecule mobility when compared to the carbon based electrolyte solvents. The new strategy consists of creating a multi-functional ion co-ordinating/transport compound that does not solidify or crystalize at low temperatures. The compounds investigated had enhanced architecture to provide superior ion transport.
