Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current gas discharge technologies are limited in their ability to form new materials, as they primarily utilize unitary gases, restricting the scope of elementary substances and compounds that can be used, and often require higher temperatures or pressures compared to mist gas discharge.
Innovation Solution
The process involves generating mist gas discharge at specific temperatures and pressures within a self-designed apparatus, using a mixture of micro/nano solid and liquid substances to form new materials, allowing for a broader selection of elementary substances and compounds, and enabling the use of multiple mist discharges and common gas discharges alternately.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If unitary gas is used in gas discharge, then the process is simple, but the selection scope of elementary substances and compounds is restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses composite mist as the discharge medium, combining micro/nano solid particles and liquid droplets with gas. This composite structure allows incorporation of multiple elementary substances and compounds simultaneously, expanding material selection scope while maintaining discharge functionality through the gas component.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the physical state parameters of the discharge medium from pure gas to mist containing micro/nano solid and liquid phases. This parameter change enables broader material selection while the gas phase maintains electrical conductivity for discharge.
2Temperature
If traditional gas discharge is used, then the process is well-established, but higher temperatures or pressures are required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes phase transition characteristics of mist components (micro/nano solid and liquid phases) to enhance reaction efficiency at lower temperatures. The phase transition behavior of dispersed particles and droplets provides additional reaction pathways compared to pure gas discharge.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the physical state parameters of the discharge medium from pure gas to mist containing micro/nano solid and liquid phases. This parameter change enables broader material selection while the gas phase maintains electrical conductivity for discharge.
3Quantity of substance
If mist gas discharge is used, then the concentration of substances is increased, but the apparatus complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the discharge medium into distinct components (gas phase, micro/nano solid particles, liquid droplets) that can be independently controlled and optimized. This segmentation allows high substance concentration through mist generation while managing apparatus complexity through modular design of mist generation and discharge systems.

AI summary
The present invention provides a process for preparing mist, which comprises micro/nano solids or liquids, and a process for forming new materials by mist gas discharge, and also provides an apparatus for forming new materials by the inventive process. The advantages of the present invention are: as compared to common gases, mists exhibit broader selection range of elements and compounds and broader range of suitable temperature and pressure. Due to the presence of mist AI(m), in a sealed container, the concentration of A in unit volume of mist is far higher than the concentration of A in unit volume of gas. Under specific conditions, the physical/chemical reactions can be carried out more easily, and new materials can be formed with higher efficiency.
