Problems with the uniformity of cure obtained in multimode ovens operating at 2.45 GHz have been overcome by utilizing Variable Frequency Microwave Processing. Hardness tests confirm DSC measurements that full cure and properties equivalent to conventional processing can be obtained. A batch up to 530g was successfully cured in 50 minutes using this technology, demonstrating large scale, efficient processing.
