PATENT DESCRIPTION


US Patent Number 7,223,469, Issued May 29, 2007:
Electriplast Moldable Composite Capsule

Abstract: Moldable capsules of a conductive loaded resin-based material are created. The moldable capsules include a conductive element core radially surrounded by a resin-based material. The conductive loaded resin-based material includes micron conductive powder(s), conductive fiber(s), or a combination of conductive powder and conductive fibers in a base resin host. The conductive element core includes between about 20% and about 50% of the total weight of the moldable capsule in one embodiment, between about 20% and about 40% in another embodiment, between about 25% and about 35% in another embodiment, and about 30% in another embodiment. The micron conductive powders are formed from non-metals, that may also be metallic plated, or from metals, that may also be metallic plated, or from a combination of non-metal, plated, or in combination with, metal powders. The micron conductor fibers preferably are of nickel plated carbon fiber, stainless steel fiber, copper fiber, silver fiber, or the like.


US Patent Number 7,708,920, Issued May 4, 2010:
Conductively Doped Resin Moldable Capsule and Method of Manufacture

Abstract: A method to form moldable capsules of a conductively doped resin-based material is realized. The method comprises compressing a bundle of micron conductive fiber strands by passing the bundle through a compressing ring. A resin-based material is extruded/pultruded onto the compressed bundle. The resin-based material and the bundle are sectioned into moldable capsules. The micron conductive fiber comprises between about 20% and about 50% of the total weight of each moldable capsule.
