The radiation processing is a chemical reaction caused in a material by radiation irradiaiton. In the radiation processing, electron beam (E-Beam) are mainly used. The E-Beam is a flow of electrons with energy. When the E-beam collides with a material, ionizing and exitation occur due to the interaction between the material and the beam, and chemical reaction occurs consequentially.
Features:
1. As the energy used in the chemical reaction is directly injected by the electron irradiaiton, energy utilization efficiency is extremely high.
2. The third material, such as catalysts, is not required.
3. The E-Beam has directivity and high processing performance.
4. Reaction control is easy.
5. Operation and maintenance is easy.
