By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – According to news reporting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx journalists, a patent application by the inventors Acharya, Saurav (Naperville, IL, US); Andrick, Ray (Pittsburgh, PA, US); Cochran, Dermot (Sturbridge, MA, US); Ibrahim-Rana, Annie (Mt. Prospect, IL, US); Mehdiyev, Rashid (Lake Forest, IL, US); Mitra, Shubhankar (Chicago, IL, US); Sodhi, Karan (Laramie, WY, US), filed on August 12, 2022, was made available online on February 15, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “Polymers, such as plastics, may be evaluated and analyzed using various tests and analyses. For example, polymers, such as plastics, may be analyzed using flammability tests, mechanical strength tests, etc. Other processes may be performed on a sample to analyze the chemical or other properties of a plastic. For example, thermogravimetric (TGA) analyses, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses, and/or infrared spectroscopy (IR) analyses may be used as identification analyses to measure inherent properties of a polymer, such as a plastic. The results of those analyses may therefore be used to identify a type of polymer, such as a plastic, as a polymer sample of the same type, because, for example, they may have similar TGA, DSC, and IR analyses results. In this way, a polymer sample may be identified as being the same as a previously analyzed sample based on the results of such prior analyses, for example, by a trained chemist skilled at comparing results of analyses such as TGA, DSC, and IR.”
