Continuous energy efficient exfoliation of vermiculite through

Microwave exfoliation of vermiculite showed that power densities of greater than 2 × 10 8 W/m3 in the heated phase (interlayer water) were required to successfully exfoliate all size classifications of vermiculite, though it depends on the bed thickness (Dodds, et al. 2010). This knowledge together with electromagnetic modelling was used to ...
