Abstract
Fluoroptic temperature measurements have established that organic solvents in a microwave cavity superheat by 13–26 °C above their conventional boiling points at atmospheric pressure; this behaviour is interpreted using a model of nucleate boiling that emphasises the importance of the wetting properties of the solvents.Keywords
