Radio wave absorbing ceramics based on the modifcation of carbide silicon and leucoxene concentrates has been developed.
Application: manufacturing of heating elements for muffle microwave furnaces.
Heating Elements Specifcations:
Operating temperature range 20—1200оС
Dielectric losses tg d = 0.218
Time required to reach the operating temperature of
550оС: 3-4’
800оС: 7-8’
1,200оС10–15’
ADVANTAGES
• Considerable reduction of electrical energy consumption resulted from a 1.5 to 2-fold decrease in the time required to reach the operating temperature.
The radio wave absorbing ceramics was tested in industrial muffle microwave furnaces of the OOO NPF Ural-Gefest Company.
