I would like to know the material out of which the walls of microwave ovens are made after looking at all the different problems posted about the behaviour of metals in microwave ovens. Is there any special treatment for the materials used? Also, how is the oven made leak-proof? Doesn't the wall material heat up? I have investigated the glass door (does not heat up) and some of the front rods inside (does heat up), but how about the walls (my hand never reached that far). And how would you think different materials would act, like metals, plastcs, ceramics, composites... Thank you.
