Intensified Nanoparticle Synthesis Using Hybrid Microwave and Ultrasound Treatments: Consecutive and Concurrent Modes

Bubble formation around nucleated particle is inevitable when quick heating of microwave is employed in nanoparticle synthesis. Since these bubbles may cause bumping behavior, the bubble growth must be possibly suppressed to ensure stable microwave‐assisted operation. In this study, sequential and simultaneous ultrasound treatment and microwave irradiations on nanoparticle synthesis are proposed and investigated to assess the benefit of...
