Synthesis of inorganic solids using microwaves
journal contribution
posted on 2009-12-03, 16:07 authored by K.J. Rao, Vaidhy VaidhyanathanVaidhy Vaidhyanathan, M. Ganguli, P.A. RamakrishnanUse of microwaves in the synthesis of materials is gaining importance. Microwave-assisted
synthesis is generally much faster, cleaner, and more economical than the conventional
methods. A variety of materials such as carbides, nitrides, complex oxides, silicides, zeolites,
apatite, etc. have been synthesized using microwaves. Many of these are of industrial and
technological importance. An understanding of the microwave interaction with materials
has been based on concepts of dielectric heating and of the resonance absorption due to
rotational excitation. This review presents a summary of recent reports of microwave
synthesis of inorganic materials. Various observations regarding microwave interaction with
materials are also briefly discussed.
