Research Abstract |
Microwave is an oscillating electromagnetic field and can selectively heat up substances depending on the absorptivity of the substances. Especially small particles with high absorptivity can selectively heated by MW irradiation in dispersed state, leading to higher temperature of the particles than the surrounding media. This is called "non-equilibrium local heating" and the resulting hot surface can function as an efficient reaction field. The "non-equilibrium local heating" has been successfully confirmed by in situ Raman observation of a dispersion liquid of metal particles under microwave irradiation. Furthermore, it has been revealed that chemical reactions are enhanced on their hot surfaces resulted from non-equilibrium local heating.
