Drying effect of polymer-ceramic film photo-thermo-photon converter

Powder with grain size about one micron is prepared from mullite (2SiO 2 3Al 2 O 3 ) melt containing 0.5 weight percent of ceramic, converting the primary energy to pulsed infrared (IR) radiation. Composite polyethylene films are produced containing 0.5, 1.0, and 2 weight percent of the obtained cha...

Description
Summary:Powder with grain size about one micron is prepared from mullite (2SiO 2 3Al 2 O 3 ) melt containing 0.5 weight percent of ceramic, converting the primary energy to pulsed infrared (IR) radiation. Composite polyethylene films are produced containing 0.5, 1.0, and 2 weight percent of the obtained charge. Use of these polyethylene- ceramic films is shown to significantly accelerate the process of vegetable drying under the action of light.
