“…Another route is microwave-assisted pultrusion. Here, the material properties together with the electromagnetic characteristics define the microwave interaction [79], meaning that selective heating of the profile with limited loss of energy to the die can be achieved by using a partially microwave-transparent die [80] (Fig. 7).…”

Microwave processing of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites is gaining increasing attention as an alternative to conventional thermal processing techniques. It has the potential to reduce part processing times and alleviate the bottleneck that often exists in composite component production. The present study reviews the current research and the state-of-the-art of microwave processing of CFRP composites. The benefits and limitations of microwave processing compared with traditional thermal processing methods are examined. The mechanical properties of microwave-cured composites are compared against conventionally-cured counterparts with varying levels of success. Current industrial microwave heating technologies are also examined. It is evident that microwave processing of polymer composites is promising but has notable limiting factors which have stunted its uptake in industry. Due to their prevalence in literature, CFRP composites with thermosetting matrices are the focus of this review. However, potential applications to carbon fibre-reinforced thermoplastics are also briefly described.

“…Among all possible heating methods, a high frequency electromagnetic energy source [2], successfully used in different industrial curing processes [3,4] could be examined as the best choice for the pultrusion applications. A very limited number of studies in the experimental [5,6,7] and simulation [8,9] aspects of microwave assisted pultrusion processes slows down their development as well as pultrusion tooling design. For this reason, new effective electro-magnetic-thermo-chemical finite element models and algorithms were developed [10,11,12] by using the general-purpose finite element software ANSYS Mechanical.…”

To demonstrate features and benefits of electromagnetic energy source, the heating of rod profile made of polyester resin POLRES 305BV and glass fibres 4800 tex in cylindrical cavity resonator was studied. Materials with different dielectric properties: zirconium dioxide, boron nitride and quartz glass for a microwave transparent die were selected and analysed. The optimal diameter of ceramic die providing an effective and uniform electric field in the composite profile was found for each material.
