Method For Forming Titanium Anisotropic Metal Particles

US Patent:
6197085, Mar 6, 2001
Filed:
Oct 8, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/168776
Inventors:
Robert S. Zeller - Boston MA
Christopher J. Vroman - Natick MA
Assignee:
Millipore Corporation - Bedford MA
International Classification:
C22C 1400
US Classification:
75245
Abstract:
A method for forming dendritic metal powders, comprising the steps of: (1) heating a powder comprising non-dendritic particles, under conditions suitable for initial stage sintering, to form a lightly sintered material; and (2) breaking the lightly sintered material to form a powder comprising dendritic particles. In one embodiment, the lightly sintered material is broken by brushing the material through a screen. Another aspect of the present invention comprises the dendritic particles that are produced by the method described above. These particles can comprise any suitable metal, such as transition metals, rare earth metals, main group metals or metalloids or an alloy of two or more such metals. The particles can also comprise a ceramic material, such as a metal oxide. These particles are characterized by a dendritic, highly anisotropic, morphology arising from the fusion of substantially non-dendritic particles, and by a low apparent density relative to the substantially non-dendritic starting material.

High-Efficiency Metal Membrane Element, Filter, And Process For Making

US Patent:
RE36249, Jul 13, 1999
Filed:
Jan 30, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/016706
Inventors:
Robert S. Zeller - Boston MA
Assignee:
Millipore Investment Holdings, Inc. - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
B01D 4610, C22C 104
US Classification:
55523
Abstract:
A high-porosity metallic membrane element comprising a sintered element having at least about 55% porosity, the sintered element comprising a matrix of substantially interconnected pores, each of the pores being defined by a plurality of dendtritic metallic particles. A preferred form is made from pure nickel, preferably filamentous nickel powder. The high-porosity metallic membrane element, comprising the aforementioned sintered element having at least about 55% porosity, can be sealed within a filter housing to produce a highly porous filter device with a filtered fluid flow path through the metal membrane element. Also disclosed is a method of making the high-porosity metallic membrane element which includes depositing by air-laying techniques a substantially uniform low-density bed of a sinterable dendritic material into a mold suitable for applying compressive force thereto, compressing the low-density bed of sinterable dendritic material to form a green form, and sintering the green form. The present filter devices exhibit superior porosity and face velocities, negligible outgassing and limited particle shedding when compared to the devices of the prior art.
