Abstract

Abstract An electrolyte, containing alkali halide, is physically transformed by means of activation-triggering energy falling within a continuum of parameters defining threshold and maximum limits. The activation-triggering energy comprises various ionizing and subionizing forms. The resultant energy state exists in the frozen or molten condition and, in the latter, it is maintained for economically long periods either by a simultaneously induced chain reaction which is nearly powered by the heat of the material or by continuous exposure to radiation. Refurbishing impulses continue the effect.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 115 words
A product for producing and maintaining the activation of a cryolite-alumina melt by the addition of the product to the melt, the product comprising cryolite material which has been transformed by activation in a cryolite-alumina melt and which has been permitted to freeze, the cryolite material having been transformed at a temperature which is above the melting point of the cryolite material by an amount less than that sufficient to prevent freezing upon activation, the activation of the cryolite material being achieved by subjecting the crystal lattice of the cryolite material to strains induced mechanically, thermally, or electrically to an extent that is within the activation continuum of cryolite material obtained from an activated melt.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 115 words
A product for producing and maintaining the activation of a cryolite-alumina melt by the addition of the product to the melt, the product comprising cryolite material which has been transformed by activation in a cryolite-alumina melt and which has been permitted to freeze, the cryolite material having been transformed at a temperature which is above the melting point of the cryolite material by an amount less than that sufficient to prevent freezing upon activation, the activation of the cryolite material being achieved by subjecting the crystal lattice of the cryolite material to strains induced mechanically, thermally, or electrically to an extent that is within the activation continuum of cryolite material obtained from an activated melt.
