Abstract
An electromagnetic susceptor for chemical processing that is made from a matrix material that surrounds a non-matrix material that is made from a material that is different from the matrix material, the matrix material is constructed of material having lower dielectric losses compared to the non-matrix material, the non-matrix material initially absorbs electromagnetic energy applied to the electromagnetic susceptor to a greater extent than the matrix material, the non-matrix material produces subsequent heat in the matrix material, and the greatest length of measurement of the electromagnetic susceptor is between one nanometer and 10 meters.

An electromagnetic susceptor for chemical processing comprising a matrix material that surrounds a non-matrix material that is made from a material that is different from the matrix material, wherein:
- a. the matrix material is constructed of material having lower dielectric losses compared to the non-matrix material;
- b. the non-matrix material initially absorbs electromagnetic energy applied to the electromagnetic susceptor to a greater extent than the matrix material;
- c. the non-matrix material produces subsequent heat in the matrix material;
- and
- d. the greatest length of measurement of the electromagnetic susceptor is between one nanometer and 10 meters.
An electromagnetic susceptor for chemical processing having a rigid and chemically inert composite structure, comprising a matrix material and a non-matrix material, wherein:
- a. the matrix material is constructed of materials having lower dielectric losses compared to the non-matrix material;
- b. interaction between the applied electromagnetic energy applied and the electromagnetic susceptor is initially absorbed by the non-matrix material and produces heat in the non-matrix material to a greater extent than in the matrix material;
- c. subsequent reflection of the applied electromagnetic energy by the non-matrix material is produced;
- and
- d. the greatest length of measurement of the susceptor is between one nanometer and 10 meters.
