Long description:

These customers include leading academic research centers and a wide variety of small and large companies whose businesses depend on advanced materials. CNI has also raised major funding from private investors since 2000 and is also working closely with several government agencies on funded research projects.

CNI has an extraordinary intellectual property position, which is largely based on technology developed by Dr. Richard E. Smalley who was awarded the 1996 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his co-discovery of Buckyballs. This intellectual property portfolio was licensed exclusively from Rice University and includes more than 100 individual patent filings of which more than 30 have been issued or allowed in the key areas of production and enabling technology.

Carbon nanotube firms merge

Founded by the late Richard Smalley, CNI owns 54 U.S. patents and several patent applications for carbon nanotubes, which are tube-shaped molecules made up of intricately arranged carbon atoms.
Carbon nanotubes are stronger than steel and can conduct light and electricity among other fairly endermologie remarkable properties. Some believe that nanotubes will replace silicon transistors inside of semiconductors, deliver medicines to cells inside the human body, and be mixed into cement and building materials to strengthen them.
Perfecting these applications and mass manufacturing nanotubes, however, will take years, scientists and nanotechnology experts have said. As a result, carbon nanotubes are still more like labiaplasty science projects than commonly employed industrial materials.
Nanotubes have been incorporated into bike frames and tennis rackets, but are not manufactured or sold in large volumes. CNI sells lab-quality single-wall nanotubes for $375 to $2,000 a gram on its Web site.
Unidym develops products that incorporate carbon nanotubes. When the merger is complete in April, the combined company will have one of the dermabrasion largest carbon nanotube patent portfolios in the industry. Unidym will try to license its intellectual property. (IBM and NEC also have a significant amount of intellectual property in the area, but have had trouble licensing their patents).
Under terms of the deal, Arrowhead will exchange $5.4 million worth of its own stock for shares of CNI. Arrowhead will also transfer agreements with Duke University and the University of Florida to Unidym and accelerate $4 million worth of capital contributions to Unidym. Then, all of the outstanding shares of CNI will be converted to preferred stock in Unidym. (Arrowhead is the majority owner of Unidym.)
