Abstract: Irradiated material solids are thermally treated using a heat transfer liquid to improve the physical, chemical, mechanical and/or biochemical properties of the irradiated material solids.
Abstract: Irradiated material solids are thermally treated using a heat transfer liquid to improve the physical, chemical, mechanical and/or biochemical properties of the irradiated material solids.
Abstract: Bulk material solids are packaged in a shaped block and the packaged block is irradiated on two sides using high-energy electron beam radiation to uniformly irradiate the solids in the package.

Abstract: A method for irradiating and modifying high molecular weight organic polymers with high energy radiation so that the radiation impinges only in a distinct pattern which is less than the width of the polymer so as to cause controlled chain scission and continuity in molecular weight distribution. The method improves the flow rate and millability of the polymers.
