Can stainless steel be heated in a microwave?

不鏽鋼竟然可以用微波爐加熱?

Many people want to eat healthily and with peace of mind. They choose to prepare their own meals and bring lunch boxes to work. They go into convenience stores, office pantries and even cook at home. They save the time of turning on the gas and waiting for the electric pot. Microwave heating only takes a short time. It only takes a few minutes, which is great news for busy modern people. Delicious meals can be served in an instant!

In order to meet the heating needs, microwave ovens have gradually become an indispensable standard equipment in daily life. However, many microwave ovens have signs saying "Do not microwave metal utensils", which greatly limits the choice of lunch box materials.

Through this , LiFE RiCH's R&D team hopes to overcome the limitations of microwave heating and allow everyone to enjoy the ease and convenience of microwave heating.

What's the special sign on a microwave oven that says "cannot heat metal utensils"?

The microwave oven emits microwaves through the magnetron, causing a rotating electric field to be formed in the microwave oven, allowing the positively and negatively charged polar molecules (EX. water molecules) to rotate with the electric field at a frequency of 2.45 billion times per second, causing the molecules to Friction between molecules generates heat. Once the microwave stops, the electric field will disappear, leaving only the heat energy generated by friction.

The inner wall of the microwave oven is made of metal. During the operation of the microwave oven, if the microwave hits sharp-angled metal products, it will reflect in the space, which may cause arcing and cause the risk of sparks in the microwave oven.

arcing phenomenon

The reason why the arc phenomenon produces sparks is related to the many movable electrons scattered throughout the metal products. Free electrons are very small particles that vibrate with the microwaves in the electric field. However, the vibration of the electrons does not generate heat energy. Instead, it concentrates on the corners of the aluminum foil paper, knives and forks, etc. The electrons pass from the tips of the appliances. Flying into the air will cause a discharge reaction and sparks in the microwave oven.

It can be seen that the structure of metal tips and sharp angles is the key factor that cannot be placed in the microwave oven. The "material" and "shape" of the appliance account for most of the reasons, but not all metals cannot be placed in the microwave oven. Arc The metal spoon is proven to be microwave safe!

It is important to note that even "two" microwaveable metal spoons cannot be heated in the microwave at the same time! Placing two (or more) separate metal objects in a microwave oven at the same time will also cause electrons at the edges or tips of the objects to collide with each other and generate sparks, which may cause damage to the equipment.
