What happens when you put polymer clay in a Microwave?
When you microwave clay pieces, the oil molecules cause the clay to cook unevenly. Because of this imbalance, some areas of your clay will be cured while others will be soft. Furthermore, the cooking areas of the clay will receive all of the microwave's electromagnetic waves, resulting in overheating. The clay bubbles as a result of overheating. It can even burn and emit a dangerous airborne chemical known as hydrogen chloride.
Do not try this at home!!

It’s because u didn’t do it in water it does wk in water but not recommend and it leaves a crazy texture on the outside side but again it hasn’t to be covered in water and timing isn’t consistent don’t recommend it at all but at the beginning I did do it

When the plastic is being burned and releasing smoke, those fumes are toxic.

Extremely dangerous, toxic fumes
Awe reminds me of the old Mircowave party I held in my early 20´s. One night I said out loud, I wonder what would happen if we put my mobile phone with the lit up antenna that isnt working anymore in a microwave. My friend said; ey I got a microwave to donate! Soon after we held a party with about 25 people were we tried out different objects, my mobile phone, lightbulp, soap, a plant leaf etc (in the name of science ofcourse!) in the donated microwave. We had an absolute blast & I am so happy nothing exploaded or got burned down (in hindsight lol) but did have to air out the smells once we dipped for the pub in town. To this day ( 20+ years later) its still talked about cause we were so dumb but had so much fun! Oh as for the mobile, the antenna lit up in its different colors before it starting melting & died completely....
Holy crap! I never did this but always wondered what would happen. Now I know. TYVM!
It looks like my mental stability before, then after school
The instructions:DO NOT PUT IN MICROWAVE Her: what's happens tho Them:🌋
HOW DID YOU BREATHE ALL THAT SMOKE😰

Yeah because you forgot to put it on foil
U put the plastic in the microwave
Thats not what happened in my experience, for me it just melted
This happened to me once when I was first learning how to work with polymer clay. But it was in the oven. Either I had the temp up too high, or I left them too long because of miscalculation of time. The whole house smelled like burnt plastic after… 😅
The fumes from polymer clay is so flipping toxic, it’s the bad plastic kind……. They need better warnings, go and do some research it’s not good stuff!!
I'm concerned about the same problem, as I'm planning to start my own polymer clay earrings business ☹️

As someone who’s been doing AIR DRY CLAY earrings here’s some advice, get a huge amount of clay, use a rolling pin and create an design, then cut the shapes out with your cutter or whatever! If you don’t do this then I hope this helped

There shouldn’t be any problems if you just use a regular oven. You can use the same oven you eat in, as long as you don’t cook food it in for a couple hours after you baked your clay. You can also purchase a mall regular oven for your clay only. Bake it like the package instructions, but if you want to paint FIMO, I’d suggest baking it at a higher temperature than the 110°C they recommend (it’s usually around 130 °C like sculpey and cosclay).

It wont have enough time to cure and cause a mess... Unplug your toaster before trying to dig it out with cutlery. Toaster oven is perfectly fine though!
So if I just put it in there for 5 secs will it be ok?

Do you mean for food or plant pots ? Because I believe there is resin that's food safe although I have seen it's not recommended 100% as you don't know what might leach out after long-term usage. If you meant for like pots or containers resin or even a good varnish should be fine just make sure you add drainage holes if it's the main pot for plants. And a good varnish should be fine for general usage. I made some small clay plates years ago and just used varnish after painting and they've held up so well. Hopefully this answered your question. Sorry if it didn't. 😅
