Many studies have been conducted on organic and inorganic synthesis by microwave heating owing to its special heating mechanism, leading to improved reaction rate, higher purity and yields. We specifically demonstrated microwave heating in the fabrication of nanoparticles and polyester. By fine-tuning the microwave and experimental parameters, the materials prepared have shown excellent physical and bio-properties, e. g. narrow particle size distribution, controlled morphology, varied molecular structure and so forth. We further highlight the recent procedure of using fluidic reactors on preparing both metals and metal oxides nanoparticles. The experimental design strategies and fundamentals of the microwave interaction with chemicals are presented. Furthermore, the key factors and issues facing in this area are also discussed.
