Role of particle size in microwave processing of metallic material systems

Abstract: Processing of metallic materials using microwave energy has been a challenge. However, exploiting the size factor of particles in these candidate materials opened up further opportunities. The amount of heat evolved inside a particle per unit volume primarily depends upon its size, shape, electromagnetic and thermal properties. Finer particles can potentially absorb more microwave energy than coarser units and get heated rapidly with higher uniformity. It results in better properties in the processed part and … Show more

“…These parameters are resistivity and magnetic permeability of the material, which depend on temperature. 24,25 In this experimental investigation, experiments were conducted in a microwave applicator and exposed at 900 W power and 2.45 GHz frequency in atmospheric conditions. During microwave exposure, Ni powder particles start to absorb microwaves and get melted at high temperature, which occurred due to the assistance of the susceptor.…”

“…This results in minimizing the exposure time, complete diffusion and lesser area of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) [32]. The absorption rate of microwave radiation will be higher if the skin depth is higher as it allows microwaves to penetrate through it [31,[33][34][35][36]. Moreover, the dielectric properties of the material also define skin depth value [37].…”

“…To improve these properties, Maxwell [6] was the first who proposed the idea of dispersion of micro-sized particles in the conventional base fluids. But, there were some drawbacks of micro-sized particles such as clogging, sedimentation, and blocking of nano-sized channels as these were big in size [7]. Therefore, there was a need to minimize the size of the particles, and to overcome this issue, Choi and Eastman [8] in 1995 introduced the idea of dispersion of nano-sized particles in the base fluids.…”
