Synthesis method and synthesis device for cyclododecene
A synthesis method and a synthesis device of cyclododecene according to the present invention have a high conversion rate of cyclododecatriene which is a reactant and a high selectivity of cyclododecene which is a required product, and even so, have an effect of significantly decreasing a reaction time. In addition, the method and the device have an excellent conversion rate of cyclododecatriene and an excellent selectivity of cyclododecene, while maintaining excellent reactivity without an organic solvent such as ethanol. Therefore, a volume of the reactor relative to an output of cyclododecene may be further decreased. Moreover, the method and the device may minimize costs for facilities and process, are practical, decrease a process time, and are industrially advantageous for mass production as compared with the conventional art.

Slug-Flow Manufacturing of Uniform and Controllable Microparticles for Battery Cathodes
Slug flow manufacturing systems and methods for production of battery microparticle materials such as nickel-cobalt-manganese oxide (NCM) are disclosed. The slug flow reactor system is capable of producing microparticles reproducibly and continuously in desired scales. The system may be run with fast kinetics (e.g., complete reaction from nucleation to particle recovery completes within a few minutes) and near-ambient reaction temperature (e.g., allowing to use inexpensive plastic tubing). The system allows control of composition (overall, and radial profile) and size of microparticles without changing chemistry nor increasing temperature. The platforms offers the ability to conveniently generate uniform microparticles, of controllable size with an ease of scale up.
