Appl. No.:

11/127843

Inventors:

Scott Lucas - Mesa AZ, US

International Classification:

B32B 3/12

US Classification:

428117000, 442104000, 442172000, 442179000

Abstract:

Prepreg compositions comprised of fibers and a prepreg resin, comprising a thermosetting resin, a curing agent, and a plurality of thermoplastic polymers, in which greater than 10% of each of the thermoplastic polymers are soluble in the prepreg resin, are useful for making composite materials. In preferred embodiments, the prepreg compositions are used as self-adhesive prepregs for making honeycomb structures useful for various high performance applications.

C12N 1/00

US Classification:

435157, 568913, 426 11, 4352891, 435243

Abstract:

This invention is directed to methods for recovery of C3-C6 alcohols from dilute aqueous solutions, such as fermentation broths. Such methods provide improved volumetric productivity for the fermentation and allow recovery of the alcohol. Such methods also allow for reduced energy use in the production and drying of spent fermentation broth due to increased effective concentration of the alcohol product by the simultaneous fermentation and recovery process which increases the quantity of alcohol produced and recovered per quantity of fermentation broth dried. Thus, the invention allows for production and recovery of C3-C6 alcohols at low capital and reduced operating costs.
