Abstract
The invention concerns a microwave oven (10) for the heat treatment of ceramic components, in particular of dental ceramic components (12). It is equipped with a susceptor (14) which is positioned in the swell or in the area between a source of microwaves and the component. The susceptor (14) is made of highly pure silicon carbide of hexagonal, rhombohedral or cubic crystal structure, which has in particular a 2H, 4H, 6H or 3C crystal structure.
