Thermally Cleavable Surfactants

US Patent:
7022861, Apr 4, 2006
Filed:
Jun 10, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/866475
Inventors:
James R. McElhanon - Manteca CA, US
Blake A. Simmons - San Francisco CA, US
Thomas Zifer - Manteca CA, US
Gregory M. Jamison - Albuquerque NM, US
Douglas A. Loy - Albuquerque NM, US
Kamyar Rahimian - Albuquerque NM, US
Timothy M. Long - Urbana IL, US
David R. Wheeler - Albuquerque NM, US
Chad L. Staiger - Albuquerque NM, US
Assignee:
Sandia National Laboratories - Livermore CA
International Classification:
C07D 49/18
C09K 3/00
US Classification:
548431, 25218311
Abstract:
Two new surfactant molecules are reported which contain thermally labile Diels-Alder adducts connecting the polar and non-polar sections of each molecule. The two surfactants possess identical non-polar dodecyl tail segments but exhibit different polar headgroups. The surfactants become soluble in water when anionic salts are formed through the deprotonation of the surfactant headgroups by the addition of potassium hydroxide. When either surfactant is exposed to temperature above about 60 C. , the retro Diels-Alder reaction occurs, yielding hydrophilic and hydrophobic fragments and the aqueous solutions of the surfactants subsequently exhibit loss of all surface-active behavior.

Enzymatic Cascade Bioreactor

US Patent:
7264962, Sep 4, 2007
Filed:
Mar 14, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/080901
Inventors:
Blake A. Simmons - San Francisco CA, US
Joanne V. Volponi - Livermore CA, US
David Ingersoll - Albuquerque NM, US
Andrew Walker - Woodinville WA, US
Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Livermore CA
International Classification:
C12M 1/00
C12M 1/24
C12M 1/18
US Classification:
4352931, 435 94, 435105, 4352891, 4352914, 4353041
Abstract:
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for continuously converting sucrose to β-D-glucose. The method comprises a three stage enzymatic reactor in which an aqueous solution of sucrose is first converted into a solution of fructose and α-D-glucose by passing it through a porous, packed column containing an inert media on which invertase is immobilized. This solution is then sent through a second packed column containing glucose isomerase and finally a third packed column containing mutarotase. Solution temperature and pH are adjusted to maximize glucose output.

Microfluidic Structures And Methods For Integrating A Functional Component Into A Microfluidic Device

US Patent:
7351380, Apr 1, 2008
Filed:
Jan 8, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/754286
Inventors:
Blake Simmons - San Francisco CA, US
Linda Domeier - Danville CA, US
Noble Woo - San Gabriet CA, US
Timothy Shepodd - Livermore CA, US
Ronald F. Renzi - Tracy CA, US
Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Livermore CA
International Classification:
B01L 3/02
B01L 11/00
B32B 5/02
B32B 27/04
B32B 27/12
US Classification:
422103, 422 50, 422 681, 422100, 422101, 422102, 422104, 436 43, 436 63, 436180, 156125, 156242
Abstract:
Injection molding is used to form microfluidic devices with integrated functional components. One or more functional components are placed in a mold cavity which is then closed. Molten thermoplastic resin is injected into the mold and then cooled, thereby forming a solid substrate including the functional component(s). The solid substrate including the functional component(s) is then bonded to a second substrate which may include microchannels or other features.

Metathesis Depolymerizable Surfactants

US Patent:
7358221, Apr 15, 2008
Filed:
Jun 26, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/475267
Inventors:
Gregory M. Jamison - Albuquerque NM, US
David R. Wheeler - Albuquerque NM, US
Douglas A. Loy - Tucson AZ, US
Blake A. Simmons - San Francisco CA, US
Timothy M. Long - Evanston IL, US
James R. McElhanon - Manteca CA, US
Kamyar Rahimian - Albuquerque NM, US
Chad L. Staiger - Albuquerque NM, US
Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Livermore CA
International Classification:
C11D 3/37
US Classification:
510476, 510475
Abstract:
A class of surfactant molecules whose structure includes regularly spaced unsaturation in the tail group and thus, can be readily decomposed by ring-closing metathesis, and particularly by the action of a transition metal catalyst, to form small molecule products. These small molecules are designed to have increased volatility and/or enhanced solubility as compared to the original surfactant molecule and are thus easily removed by solvent extraction or vacuum extraction at low temperature. By producing easily removable decomposition products, the surfactant molecules become particularly desirable as template structures for preparing meso- and microstructural materials with tailored properties.

Bonding Thermoplastic Polymers

US Patent:
7390377, Jun 24, 2008
Filed:
Sep 22, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/234607
Inventors:
Thomas I. Wallow - Fremont CA, US
Marion C. Hunter - Livermore CA, US
Karen Lee Krafcik - Livermore CA, US
Alfredo M. Morales - Livermore CA, US
Blake A. Simmons - San Francisco CA, US
Linda A. Domeier - Danville CA, US
Assignee:
Sandia Corporation - Livermore CA
International Classification:
C09J 5/02
B31F 1/12
US Classification:
1563086, 156183
Abstract:
We demonstrate a new method for joining patterned thermoplastic parts into layered structures. The method takes advantage of case-II permeant diffusion to generate dimensionally controlled, activated bonding layers at the surfaces being joined. It is capable of producing bonds characterized by cohesive failure while preserving the fidelity of patterned features in the bonding surfaces. This approach is uniquely suited to production of microfluidic multilayer structures, as it allows the bond-forming interface between plastic parts to be precisely manipulated at micrometer length scales. The bond enhancing procedure is easily integrated in standard process flows and requires no specialized equipment.
