| 6306275 | Method for controlling organic micelle size in nickel-plating solution A process for controlling the micelle size distribution of an alkylene oxide dispersion in a nickel-plating electrolyte is used to maintain the electrolyte in a condition suitable for producing nickel coatings having a uniform satin finish in which finish... | 10/23/2001 |
| 6090266 | Process for production of hydrogen from anaerobically decomposed organic materials A process for the production of hydrogen from anaerobically decomposed organic materials by applying an electric potential to the anaerobically decomposed organic materials, including landfill materials and sewage, to form hydrogen, and for decreasing the... | 07/18/2000 |
| 5810996 | Electro-osmotic transport in wet processing of textiles Electro-osmotic (or electrokinetic) transport is used to efficiently force a solution (or water) through the interior of the fibers or yarns of textile materials for wet processing of textiles. The textile material is passed between electrodes that apply ... | 09/22/1998 |
| 5667667 | Electrochemical treatment of surfaces A method of electrochemically patterning a surface comprises providing an electrolyte overlying the surface and an array of electrodes adjacent the surface and in contact with the electrolyte, and altering the potential of one or more electrodes of the ar... | 09/16/1997 |
| 5667668 | Electrolysis process for removal of caustic in hemicellulose caustic Pulping chemicals and hemicellulose are recovered from a starting solution essentially free of lignin but containing a mixture of hemicellulose and caustic by electrolyzing this solution in the anolyte compartment of an electrolytic cell. By electrolysis,... | 09/16/1997 |
