Abstract
Provided herein are methods, devices and compositions to conductively or to inductively heat substrates using electromagnetic energy. Also provided are methods, devices and compositions to inductively alter or treat a substrate by inducing a conformational change in the compositions and/or the substrates. The compositions provided comprise an energy absorbing species to transduce heat to the substrates to effect such alterations or treatments.
