Problems solved by technology

Compared with other methods, the combustion synthesis method has the advantages of rapidity and low energy consumption. However, since combustion synthesis requires harsh reaction conditions such as high temperature and high pressure, it is difficult to enlarge the equipment for combustion synthesis, and the volume is generally small, resulting in single-furnace synthesis. The quantity is limited, generally no more than 5kg
In order to increase production, dozens or even hundreds of devices must be used. On the one hand, this results in high investment in equipment. On the other hand, it requires a large number of workers to operate, which also increases labor costs and increases safety risks. This is very unfavorable for large-scale production
