NEW RADIATION PROTECTION MATERIAL AGAINST TERRORISM HAS BEEN GRANTED TWO ADDITIONAL PATENTS
Radiation Shield Technologies, creators of Demron®, the World’s First Nuclear Radiation Blocking Fabric, has been granted additional Patent Protection.
Miami FL. -- January 17, 2005 -- Radiation Shield Technologies (RST®) announced today the acquisition of two additional United States Patents, #6,841,791 and #6,828,578. In September 2002, RST® introduced Demron®, the world’s first anti-nuclear fabric. Since that time, Demron® has been incorporated into a number of garments such as full-body nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) suits, tactical anti-nuclear vests, high-energy nuclear suppression blankets, and most recently, medical x-ray vests and aprons.
Demron® is revolutionary material because it is Lead-free, toxin-free, and PVC-free nuclear blocking material. It also has the unique ability to allow for heat dissipation, resist chemical permeation, and is crack resistant. Its ability to block radiation has been confirmed by a number of prominent universities and government labs. Demron® is an advanced radiopaque nano-polymeric compound that is fused between layers of fabric and manufactured into a number of lightweight nuclear blocking garments. RST®’s ISO 9000 partners, Kappler® and Point Blank® (AMEX:DHB), manufacture these garments.
Demron® was originally developed over 10 years ago, by surgeon Ron Demeo, MD, MBA. Demron® received its first patent (#6,281,515) in 2001 and its second (6,459,091) in 2001.
According to Dr. DeMeo, “these two additional patents are significant because the additional 193 claims allows RST® to fully capture all of Demron®’s market potential”.
RST® is a private corporation that is entering its second round of financing. For more information contact RST® at info@radshield.com, 866-7-DEMRON, or visit www.radshield.com.
