overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to
be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from
the microwave oven is not always present.

it.

necks.
4. After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
