Disclosed are improved ceramic compositions which are useful in the formulation of microwave susceptors and to the susceptors fabricated therefrom for disposable packages for the microwave heating of food items. The compositions include certain metal salts as time/temperature profile moderators in addition to a novel microwave absorbing material and a binder. Certain metal salts can be used to dampen or lower the final temperatures reached upon microwave heating the ceramic compositions. Other metal salts can be used to increase or accelerate the final temperature reached upon microwave heating. The microwave absorbing materials comprise selected ceramics in both their native and amphoteric forms. Such useful ceramics are those with residual lattice charges or an unbalance of charge in the fundamental framework or layers such as vermiculite, bentonite, hectorite, zeolites, selected micas including Glauconite, phlogopite and Biotite and mixtures thereof. These ceramics are activated to their amphoteric form by treatment with either acids or bases. The compositions provide good heat generation and a predeterminable upper temperature limit which is higher in the amphoteric form than in their native form. The ceramic materials are common and inexpensive.

A greenware composite composition useful as a susceptor for microwave heating with microwaves at about 2,450 MHz, comprising: A. about 1% to 60% by weight of the composition of a binder selected from the group consisting of calcium sulphate, cements, calcite, dolomite, aragonite, silica fiber, whether amorphorus or crystalline, feldspar, pulverized polyamide fiber, colloidal silicas, fumed silicas, fiberglass, wood pulp, cotton fibers, thermoplastic resins and thermosetting resins; B. about 15% to less than 99% by weight of the composition of an amphoteric ceramic susceptor material comprising a material which absorbs microwave energy and having a residual lattice charge; wherein the amphoteric ceramic susceptor material is selected from the group consisting of vermiculite, glauconite, Bentonite, zeolites, phologophite mica, biotite mica, Hectorite, Chlorite, Illite, Attapulgite, Saponite, Sepiolite, ferriginous smectite, kaolinites, Halloysites, and mixtures thereof, said amphoteric susceptor material being in a charged state by having been treated with an acid or base; and C. about 0.5% to 6% by weight of the composition of a metal salt supplemental microwave absorbing material selected from the group consisting of sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, silver nitrate, silver citrate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, magnesium sulfate, sodium citrate, potassium acetate, barium chloride, potassium iodide, potassium bromate, copper chloride, lithium chloride, ferric chloride and mixtures thereof, homogeneously dispersed through the composition; and wherein the composition is unfired.
