This invention covers a manufacturing method for producing a component containing a bismuth target used to generate Astatine-211 (At-211), a radioactive isotope of medical interest. The key process involves compressing bismuth powder in a press while applying heat, effectively sintering the powder into a solid, dense target. The resulting component is designed to be used at a cyclotron, where it is bombarded to produce At-211. The method offers a controlled and reproducible way to fabricate high-quality bismuth targets for radiopharmaceutical production.
This invention is a lithium secondary (rechargeable) battery that uses a specially formulated non-aqueous electrolyte to improve performance. The electrolyte combines a non-aqueous solvent with a mixed lithium salt system consisting of a fluorosulfonylimide-based lithium salt and lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6). The cathode is built on an aluminum current collector and uses a lithium-manganese-rich oxide as the active material. Together, these components are designed to enhance the electrochemical stability and overall performance of the battery.
This invention is a device and method for carrying out chemical reactions — particularly thermally catalysed ones — in which an electric potential is applied directly to the catalyst material inside the reaction chamber. A voltage source is connected to or interacts with the catalyst medium so that the electrical field can actively influence how the reaction proceeds. By tuning the electric potential, operators can modulate catalytic activity without changing the catalyst itself or the reaction temperature alone. This approach merges electrochemical control with classical heterogeneous catalysis in a single reactor unit.
