AbstractA nondestructive microwave testing method to control the green compression strength and moisture content was proposed and demonstrated. There are various green moulding sands, both qualitative (bentonite type) and quantitative (bentonite and water content), prepared. The permittivity measurements were performed by cavity perturbation technique (CPT) at 2.45 GHz. Relative complex permittivity of the bentonite bonded moulding sands is proportional to the bentonite and moisture content and is inversely proportional to green compressive strength. It was shown that the obtained permittivity value of the molding sands be used to investigate the green compression strength and moisture content.

In this paper, the cavity perturbation method was used to measure the dielectric properties of materials that are important for understanding the response to microwave waves, in terms of the ability of these materials to store energy and dissipate it as heat, respectively. Compounds (polyester / walnut shells) were prepared, and for different weight concentrations of walnut shells (WS) additive, the proportions ranged between (0% - 25%). The used cavity is rectangular in shape with a theoretically resonance frequency of around (9.9978 GHz) and exiting the dominant mode (TE101). The study shows the highest values of each dielectric constant with a weight concentration (25%) of the walnut shells, and the loss tangent without any material change to the sample. These compounds have been found to be useful in applications of electromagnetic materials such as microwave engineering and protection from biological influences when exposed to the field of microwaves, which is why it is very important to test their dielectric properties.

Recently, a laboratory setup for microwave-based characterization of powder samples at elevated temperatures and different gas atmospheres was presented. The setup is particularly interesting for operando investigations on typical materials for exhaust gas aftertreatment. By using the microwave cavity perturbation method, where the powder is placed inside a cavity resonator, the change of the resonant properties provides information about changes in the dielectric properties of the sample. However, determining the exact complex permittivity of the powder samples is not simple. Up to now, a simplified microwave cavity perturbation theory had been applied to estimate the bulk properties of the powders. In this study, an extended approach is presented which allows to determine the dielectric properties of the powder materials more correctly. It accounts for the electric field distribution in the resonator, the depolarization of the sample and the effect of the powder filling. The individual method combines findings from simulations and recognized analytical approaches and can be used for investigations on a wide range of materials and sample geometries. This work provides a more accurate evaluation of the dielectric powder properties and has the potential to enhance the understanding of the microwave behavior of storage materials for exhaust gas aftertreatment, especially with regard to the application of microwave-based catalyst state diagnosis.

In this paper, we performed and designed a new rectangular cavity to identify and analyze the complex permittivity of two cancer cells (Breast-MDA231, Uveal melanoma) that have a high dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The rectangular cavity device is based on the improved cavity perturbation technology. The sample of the improved cavity perturbation device is placed at the position of a/n close to the wall of the cavity, where a is the wide side of the cavity and n is the positive even number. For high-loss biological materials, the improved cavity perturbation method has higher accuracy than the traditional cavity perturbation method. The results present that the relative dielectric constants of a single cell at Ka-band (26.5–40 GHz) are in the range 8–15, and the relative dielectric loss is 24–31. The information of the cancer cells at Ka-band waves can be helpful for further cancer detection and clinical treatment.
