XDSL Stock: mPhase Platform Technology Breakthrough May Enable Self-Cleaning Surfaces
ST. GALLEN, SWITZERLAND -- (Marketwire) -- 09/17/08 -- Leading microfluidics and
nanotechnology specialist mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: XDSL stock), today
said its breakthrough research in microfluidics on understanding how micro-
and nanostructured surfaces could be engineered to have properties for
repelling water and other types of liquids potentially used in consumer
applications to enable self-cleaning surfaces such as shower doors or
windows and other materials used in self-cleaning systems.
The capability to produce a self-cleaning surface such as a self-cleaning
shower door is an outgrowth of research based upon mPhase's breakthrough in
manipulating microfluidics on a nanostructured surface, which led to the
development of its Smart NanoBattery, recently the subject of a $749,700
grant from the US Army to produce a long life battery for powering memory
chips used in a computer application.
"The self cleaning shower door application is being considered because it
potentially is a low cost path to incorporate some of the scientific
techniques learned from our research into a consumer product that can
benefit from having an improved design for a surface that can be self
cleaned," said Ronald A. Durando, CEO of mPhase Technologies Inc.
mPhase looks forward to developing other applications stemming from its
breakthrough in controlling how liquids act on a nanostructured surface.
