Abstract: A method for preparing three types of benzidine compounds in a specific ratio, the method uses two types of diphenylamine compounds and one type of biphenyldihalide compound in a specific ratio as reactants to mix with an organic solvent and an additive to synthesize benzidine compounds in one step. The synthesized three types of benzidine compounds specially perform in a designated mixturing ratio having excellent photoelectric characteristics for a charge transporting layer in an organic photo-conductive drum.

Abstract: A method of using high temperature plasma to disintegrate waste containing titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc) comprises heating a mixture of titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc), a vitrifying material and optionally selected waste soil to a temperature of 1,220° C. to 10,000° C. until the mixture becomes a molten lava. The plasma breaks down the titanyl phthalocyanine and encapsulates the benign products in the lava that is chemically very stable. Since the titanyl phthalocyanine (TiOPc) is disintegrated completely in the process, the titanyl phtbalocyanine (TiOPc) no longer represents a threat to the environmental.

Abstract: Coumarin derivatives are used with an electroluminescent (EL) device in accordance with the present invention. The coumarin derivatives have the representative formula (1): wherein the R1 is a branched alkyl group of 3 to 10 carbon atoms.
