DEFINITION

Classification: 422/186

With means applying electromagnetic wave energy or corpuscular radiation to reactants for initiating or perfecting chemical reaction:

(under subclass 129) Apparatus having means for applying electromagnetic wave energy (other than visible light) or corpuscular radiation; e.g., radioactive particles, etc., to the reactants for initiating or perfecting the reaction.
