aturalNano, Inc. (OTCBB:NNAN.OB) an- nounced that the US Patent Office had issued a
key patent which covers the use of its proprietary Halloysite material as a performance enhancing ad- ditive when used in molded polymers. NNAN has pioneered the use of environmentally friendly, natu- rally occurring Halloysite in a range of industrial ap- plications. The issuance of US Patent No. 8,124,678 titled “Nanocomposite Master Batch and Method of Manufacturing” expands the patent protection for the use of Halloysite to its incorporation as a perfor- mance enhancer to molded polymers.
NaturalNano‘s CEO James Wemett said, “One of the challenges in manufacturing reinforced polymers is getting thorough mixing of the reinforcing materials in the molding equipment to obtain the highest qua- lity products at minimal cycle times. The method and materials covered by this patent enable the creation of a high concentration pre-mix Halloysite material in pelletized form that is readily combined with stan- dard polymer pellets for use in molding machines.”
