Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03067931A1] Accelerated heat-up of carbon foam materials is achieved through the use of microwave and/or induction heating devices. According to various preferred embodiments of the present invention, such microwave/induction heating acceleration is obtained through the use of microwave/induction heating devices alone or in concert with more conventional radiation or convection based heating devices. The method of the present invention permit the relatively rapid and uniform heat-up of carbon foam materials particularly in such processes as the carbonization and/or graphitization thereof.
