Free-Radical Frontal Polymerization With Microencapsulated Monomers And Initiators

US Patent:
2006014, Jun 29, 2006
Filed:
Sep 7, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/221356
Inventors:
John Pojman - Baton Rouge LA, US
Brian McFarland - Clarksville AR, US
Zachary Kemp - Mendenhall MS, US
Sam Popwell - Hattiesburg MS, US
International Classification:
C08F 4/04
US Classification:
526219600, 526227000, 526318430
Abstract:
A polymerization composition is formed by mixing a monomer polymerizable by frontal polymerization and an encapsulated, free-radical initiator which can be released by the application of heat. In a second embodiment, the monomer is also encapsulated.

Rapid Curing Wood Putty Based On Frontal Polymerization

US Patent:
2009015, Jun 18, 2009
Filed:
Dec 18, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/002675
Inventors:
Charles E. Hoyle - Hattiesburg MS, US
John A. Pojman - New Orleans LA, US
International Classification:
C08F 2/48
US Classification:
427517
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for rapidly curing wood putty utilizing frontal polymerization. The reaction is initiated with UV light, and a reaction front propagates through the putty, completing the cure in seconds. A depth of cure of more than 1 cm deep of the wood putty is rapidly achieved.

Functionally Gradient Polymeric Materials

US Patent:
6057406, May 2, 2000
Filed:
Aug 3, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/128126
Inventors:
John A. Pojman - New Orleans LA
Timothy W. McCardle - Hazlehurst MS
Assignee:
The University of Southern Mississippi - Hattiesburg MS
International Classification:
C08F 200
US Classification:
526 87
Abstract:
Functionally gradient polymeric materials are formed by a process that utilizes an ascending polymerization front. A polymerization front is initiated in a reaction vessel containing a monomer solution. Additional monomers or resins are added on top of the polymerization front to maintain a substantially constant level. The composition of the monomers and/or additives are varied as they are added to the reaction vessel to form a functionally gradient polymeric material.

Functionally Gradient Polymeric Materials

US Patent:
6313237, Nov 6, 2001
Filed:
Apr 18, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/551065
Inventors:
John A. Pojman - New Orleans LA
Timothy W. McCardle - Hazlehurst MS
Assignee:
The University of Southern Mississippi - Hattiesburg MS
International Classification:

US Classification:
526 87
Abstract:
Functionally gradient polymeric materials are formed by a process that utilizes an ascending polymerization front.

Feral Hog Toxicant

US Patent:
2021006, Mar 11, 2021
Filed:
Aug 24, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/000581
Inventors:
- Baton Rouge LA, US
John Pojman - Baton Rouge LA, US
Baylen Thompson - Spanish Fort AL, US
Assignee:
Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
A01N 59/00
Abstract:
A composition and method for killing feral hogs: a bait that is attractive to hogs is mixed with a lethal amount of sodium nitrite, along with sufficient base to inhibit decomposition of the sodium nitrite. At sufficiently high pH, encapsulation of the sodium nitrite is not required to inhibit decomposition. In the absence of substantial decomposition, the sodium nitrite itself is not aversive to the pigs, and may even enhance acceptance of the baits by the pigs. Optionally, an anti-emetic compound is added to the mixture to reduce the likelihood the bait will be vomited. Optionally, an additional toxicant such as luteolin is added to the mixture.

Cure-On-Demand And Time-Lapse Polymerization

US Patent:
2019015, May 23, 2019
Filed:
Nov 21, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/197545
Inventors:
John Anthony Pojman - Baton Rouge LA, US
Assignee:
Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
C08F 16/06
C08G 59/40
C08G 59/22
C08K 3/38
C08K 5/55
C12N 9/80
Abstract:
The present invention provides compositions, methods and kits for the temporal control induction time for a polymerization reaction.

Thiol Acrylate Nanocomposite Foams

US Patent:
2015029, Oct 22, 2015
Filed:
Oct 31, 2013
Appl. No.:
14/439856
Inventors:
Daniel HAYES - , US
John Pojman - Baton Rouge LA, US
Assignee:
Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College - Baton Rouge LA
International Classification:
C08J 9/12
C08J 9/00
A61L 27/46
A61L 27/58
A61L 27/54
C08G 63/688
A61L 27/56
Abstract:
Thiol-acrylate copolymers are disclosed that are useful, for example, as injectable biomaterials to provide both mechanical support and biological cues to stimulate bone regrowth. Composites can be formed, for example incorporating hydroxyapatite crystal inclusions into the copolymer. In one embodiment, the composite is gas-foamed with a blowing agent during or before cure to form a porous, interconnected scaffold. The synthesis employs an amine-catalyzed Michael addition co-polymerization of a poly-thiol with a poly-acrylate. The catalyst is an in situ catalyst, such as a tertiary amine moiety that is covalently bonded to one of the reactants, preferably to the poly-acrylate. The materials can rapidly co-polymerize in vivo or in vitro via catalysis by the “attached” in situ tertiary amine groups.
