[Histonet] ANP.28860

[Rene J Buesa]

Barb:
  Just to clarify: microwave-transparent does not mean "clear plastic", it means that the plastic does not absorb microwaves (MW) and, therefore, is considered as "transparent".
  Examples:
  Distilled water lets MW to travel only 3.4 cm in it, but those same MW can travel 400 meters in Styrofoam. Water, that is a transparent liquid, is almost 12 thousand times less "MW transparent" than Styrofoan, in spite of being an opaque material.
  You can have a black plastic container that is more "MW transparent" than water.
  That is what the CAP question is all about: Are you using "MW transparent" containers, i.e. Are you sure than the container is not interfering with the MW?
  Hope this will clarify your question.

New CAP question: Are all containers used in the micorwave devices made from microwave-transparent material. I'm having trouble finding transparent plastic coplin jars. We have pyrex, but they break in the microwave. Any suggestions where we can purchase transparent plastic coplin jars??
