  • Publication number: 20230193482
    Abstract: A device for producing an azo compound includes a reaction unit in which a first solution comprising a hydrazo compound and at least one type of MaXb; a negative electrode disposed to be in direct contact with the hydrazo compound inside the reaction unit; and a positive electrode disposed inside the reaction unit so as to be in contact with the solution. X is a halogen element, M is at least one selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, Li, Na, K, Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Ag, Zn, Sn, Zr, and Ti, or at least one selected from the group consisting of a primary ammonium ion, a secondary ammonium ion, and a tertiary ammonium ion, H is hydrogen, and a and b are each independently any one integer between 1 and 4.

  • Publication number: 20230192599
    Abstract: A method for preparing an azo compound includes a first step for producing an Xb molecule by electrolyzing, in a reaction system, a first solution including a hydrazo compound and at least one type of MaXb; a second step for oxidizing the hydrazo compound with the generated Xb molecule to obtain a second solution including an azo compound, MaXb, and HX; a third step for discharging the second solution outside the reaction system, and separating therefrom a third solution including MaXb and HX to obtain a solid azo compound; and a fourth step for introducing the third solution and an additional hydrazo compound equivalent to the hydrazo compound into the reaction system, and electrolyzing a fourth solution including the additional hydrazo compound, MaXb, and HX to produce an Xb molecule.

  • Patent number: 10881854
    Abstract: Provided is a respiratory muscle strengthening device, in which an inhalation start signal is generated correspondingly at an inhalation start time when a patient inhales air or an exhalation start signal is generated correspondingly at an exhalation start time when the patient exhales air, an electric signal according to the inhalation start signal or the exhalation start signal is transmitted to an electric muscle stimulator via a communication unit, a muscle pad installed on respiratory muscles of the patient enables smooth breathing motion by stimulating the respiratory muscles based on a signal transmitted from the electric muscle stimulator, and a receptor pad is provided to the respiratory muscles such that an alarm of determining whether electric stimulation is normally applied via the state of the respiratory muscles detected through the receptor pad is output, thereby securing reliability of a device.
