DEFINITION

Classification: 204/155

Chemical processes which have for their purpose the preparation of compounds or elements through chemical reaction brought about by the agency of electrical or wave energy in which the reaction is carried out within a magnetic field; except electrolytic processes, provided for above, and those brought about through mere heating effect of electrical or wave energy. For example, the conversion of the surface of a polymeric material to produce a film thereon. This includes both the synthetic production of compounds or elements and, likewise, the chemical modification or chemical purification of compounds or elements, making use of electrical or wave energy to effect the chemical changes in such processes. The processes falling within these subclasses are those whose purpose is for the production of compounds, elements by chemical reactions, but not those wherein a material or composition is treated, such as a metal, tobacco, foods, beverages, leather and the like, and in which a chemical change may be brought about.
