Plasma-promoted dielectric heating in the microwave synthesis of spinels.
Comparison between the rates of synthesis of the spinel phases (MAl2O4, M = Mg, Zn, Ni; and MFe2O4, M = Mg, Zn, Mn) using an O2 microwave-induced plasma (MIP) and conventional (tube furnace) methods indicate that a MIP promotes microwave dielectric heating at elevated temperatures.
