Determining the technological mode of foaming of blocked heat-insulating material based on liquid glass in microwave equipment

Abstract

The foaming process of liquid glass composition during production of blocked heat-insulating material based on liquid glass in the microwave equipment has been researched. The optimum conditions for obtaining he heat-insulating materials using microwave irradiation have been determined. It has been shown that usage of microwave irradiation allows performing the bulk heating of all layers of the liquid glass composition, obtaining the qualitative material and reducing the energy consumption during manufacturing of these products.
