Microwave-Promoted Continuous Flow Systems in Nanoparticle Synthesis—A Perspective

Abstract: Microwave-promoted continuous flow systems have emerged as a game-changer in nanoparticle synthesis. Owing to the excellent compatibility between fast, sustainable microwave heating and one-step, efficient flow chemistry, this promising technology is meant to enhance the synthetic abilities of nanoscientists. This Perspective aims to present a panoramic view of the state of the art in this field. Additionally, the effect of various microwave and flow parameters on the properties of nanoparticles is discussed a… Show more

“…[31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] Microwave (MW) heating, a green and sustainable method, involves dipolar polarisation and ionic conduction. 39 When coupled with a continuous flow-type reactor, it offers various advantages over traditional methods, such as fast and uniform heating, homogeneous mixing, higher yield and purity, narrow particle size distributions, 40 "in-core" volumetric heating, 41 and enhanced nucleation zones for metal NPs. 39 In a typical MW-promoted continuous flow system, a homogeneous dispersion of precursors is fed continuously into a microreactor exposed to MW irradiation in a MW cavity.…”

“…[23][24][25] The advantage of microwave heating in nanoparticle synthesis is that microwave energy can be used to achieve rapid, homogeneous volumetric heating on a typical laboratory scale. 26,27 Since heat can be very rapidly and uniformly generated within the reaction mixture and elevated temperatures can be reached in only a few minutes, microwave-assisted nanocrystal synthesis can combine the benets of both the heat-up and the hot injection methods. Moreover, efficient microwave heating combined with ow synthesis has been proposed for the mass production of nanomaterials.…”
