Abstract: Infrared radiation materials of Fe 2O 3 MnO 2 CuO Co 2O 3 system were synthesized by microwave heating, and infrared radiation properties of synthesized powders were measured. XRD, IR, SEM and image analysis were used to investigate the microstructure and morphology characteristics of powders. The results show that powders with a cubic spinal structure were produced by heating at 1 000 ℃ for 10 min or at 900 ℃ for 30 min in microwave field, indicating apparent decrease of synthesis temperature and time compared with conventional heating. Microwave synthesized powders have significant advantages of small particle size and narrow particle size distribution over conventionally synthesized powders. The powders synthesized at 1 000 ℃ for 10 min and at 900 ℃ for 30 min in microwave field exhibit average particle sizes of 1.175 μm and 1.814 μm, respectively. No remarkable difference was detected between infrared radiation properties of powders synthesized by microwave heating and conventional heating respectively, which exhibit total emissivities of 0.84.

Abstract:
Infrared radiation materials of Fe 2O 3 MnO 2 CuO Co 2O 3 system were synthesized by microwave heating, and infrared radiation properties of synthesized powders were measured. XRD, IR, SEM and image analysis were used to investigate the microstructure and morphology characteristics of powders. The results show that powders with a cubic spinal structure were produced by heating at 1?000?℃ for 10?min or at 900?℃ for 30?min in microwave field, indicating apparent decrease of synthesis temperature and time compared with conventional heating. Microwave synthesized powders have significant advantages of small particle size and narrow particle size distribution over conventionally synthesized powders. The powders synthesized at 1?000?℃ for 10?min and at 900?℃ for 30?min in microwave field exhibit average particle sizes of 1.175?μm and 1.814?μm, respectively.
