Research and Application of Electromagnetic Wave Absorbing Materials in Microwave Melting Ice and Snow Road

Abstract:

The heating mechanism of electric and magnetic loss materials under microwave irradiation is expounded. The heating rate, material composition and road performance of four kinds of microwave ice and snow roads including carbon fiber, magnetite ore, steel fiber and ferrite are reviewed. And analyze their respective characteristics and applicable conditions. The problems existing in microwave melting ice and snow technology are discussed, and the application prospects of electromagnetic wave absorbing materials in microwave melting ice and snow road are prospected.
