Abstract: A method of the present invention for producing an anion exchange membrane includes the steps of: (i) irradiating a first polymer film with radiation; and (ii) graft-polymerizing a monomer containing a site into which a functional group having anion conducting ability can be introduced and an unsaturated carbon-carbon bond onto the radiation-irradiated first polymer film so as to form a second polymer film containing grafted chains. This method further includes the subsequent steps of: (a) subjecting the second polymer film to a treatment including irradiation with radiation so as to introduce a crosslinked structure into the grafted chains; and (b) introducing the functional group having anion conducting ability into the site.
Abstract: A preparation method of chromenone derivatives using radiation is provided. The preparation method exposes commercially-available silybin in reaction solvent to radiation, to thereby concurrently obtain both dehydrosilybin and apigenin compounds, which are chromenone compounds, in a simple reaction step and with high yield. Because the compounds are prepared at economic cost, the preparation method can be advantageously used particularly for the purpose of mass production. Further, in consideration of good cancer cell viability suppression effect thereof, dehydrosilybin and apigenin prepared according to the preparation method can be advantageously used as a pharmaceutical composition for prevention and treatment of cancer.

Abstract: System and process in which graphene, which may be produced on a commercial scale, is highly purified, then functionalized in a vertical plasma reactor which can also deagglomerate and/or delaminate the graphene, as well as separating or classifying the functionalized graphene particles according to size. In one disclosed embodiment, the graphene is produced by combustion of magnesium (Mg) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in a highly exothermic reaction. The graphene is separated from the other reaction products and purified in a series of washing, heating, and drying steps, following which it is functionalized and otherwise processed in the plasma reactor.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for making a biomass susceptible to depolymerization or liquefaction under mild conditions. The process comprises introducing into the biomass a material susceptible to the absorption of electro-magnetic radiation to form a radiation absorbent biomass. The radiation absorbent biomass is subjected to electro-magnetic radiation to form an activated biomass.
Abstract: The present invention provides microwave assisted rapid and economical process for the preparation of substituted phenylaldehydes from trans and cis-phenylpropene, a commercial utilization of toxic cis-isomer of the general formula (I) 1
Abstract: The invention provides a process for carrying out a photochemical gas-liquid process for halogenating alkylbenzenes, the process being carried out in a photochemical gas-liquid reactor comprising a vessel, a central source of radiation, a gas distributor, and additionally, inner sleeve means arranged concentrically between the source of radiation and the vessel, the inner sleeve means providing for internal recirculation of reaction liquid.
