Glory Glass Technology: What equipment is suitable for use in microwave ovens?

In daily life, we often encounter such a problem: "Can ordinary glass bowls be heated in a microwave oven for 1 hour? If not, what kind of glassware is used in a microwave oven?" The following is glory (Tianjin) Glass technology collects the materials for you and hopes to be useful for your future life.

More important is to master the three elements: 1 microwave oven penetration, 2 high temperature, 3 meet food hygiene requirements.

1. Glassware: vessels made of borosilicate glass, glass-ceramic, and titanium oxide crystal glass. Suitable for microwave ovens due to good microwave penetration, stable physical and chemical properties, and high temperature resistance (up to 500 degrees Celsius or even 1000 degrees Celsius). Used for a long time. Glass, milk bottles and feeding bottles made of ordinary glass are only suitable for heating in a microwave oven for a short time, about 3 minutes. If the heating time is long, it is easy to break. Carved glass, tempered glass, crystal glass products, due to the uneven thickness of the material, will burst when cooking oily food, not suitable for use in microwave ovens.

2. Ceramic ware: There are heat-resistant ceramics and ordinary ceramics. The enamel, tray and the like made of heat-resistant ceramics are suitable for long-term use in a microwave oven, and ordinary ceramic vessels can only be used for short-time heating. In particular, ceramic pots containing gold and silver wire will spark when used in a microwave oven, so it is not suitable for use.

3. Plastic utensils: polypropylene, polypropylene resin, composite polypropylene, polysulfone and other materials made of various materials, temperature resistance of more than 120 degrees Celsius, can be used for microwave heating. The vessel made of PET resin and polyester material can withstand temperatures up to 220 degrees Celsius and can be used for barbecue. Preservative film is also a plastic product: one is a common plastic wrap, which can be used when heating vegetables; the other is a plastic wrap for microwave ovens, which can be used to heat meat, poultry, and sugar. As for heat-resistant polyethylene, styrene, phenol, melamine and other utensils, do not use them in microwave ovens. Because these materials are all microwaved, they will melt when heated, and some will emit toxins. Odor, harmful to human health. (Air-conditioning glass, refrigerator glass, + appliance glass)

4. Metalware: All kinds of utensils made of metal materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, enamel, etc., the microwave can not be transmitted through the metal, the bright metal surface can reflect the microwave, the non-transparency and reflection of the metal container can make the microwave can not reach inside, The food cannot be heated. At the same time, the mutual reflection between the container and the inner wall of the furnace will cause eddy currents and sparking of some metals, which is very dangerous! Therefore, it is not suitable for use in a microwave oven.

5. Wood, paper, etc.: In the wet state, these utensils can be used in a microwave oven for a short time. However, if the time is long, the drying of the vessel will lead to overburning. Painted containers of this type are forbidden to be used in microwave ovens because of the presence of benzene in the paint, which is caused by microwave heating to contaminate the food.

In addition to paying attention to the material of the vessel, consumers should choose a shallow bottom, a wide mouth, a straight side, and a round shape when selecting the shape of the vessel.
