CO₂-based polymerization is often developed around catalyst activity, selectivity, conversion, and polymer structure. At industrial scale, however, chemistry alone does not determine whether the process can operate efficiently. CO₂ must continuously dissolve and transfer into a reacting liquid whose viscosity,…
Purifying vinylene carbonate (VC) for battery electrolyte applications is not simply a matter of adding theoretical stages or increasing reflux. VC is thermally sensitive and prone to polymerization, so aggressive separation conditions can improve fractionation while simultaneously reducing yield or…
Producing high-purity lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) is not simply a matter of maximizing reaction conversion. Reactor conditions influence hydrolysis, side reactions, impurity formation, thermal exposure, corrosion risk, and the purification burden that follows synthesis. This makes reactor design part of the…
