Abstract
The invention relates to apparatus for performing chemical and physical pressure reactions on samples by the action of microwaves, having container inserts to receive the samples that are at least in part microwave-permeable and are arranged in a microwave-impermeable housing connected via at least one coupling opening to a microwave generator. To enable pressure reactions to be performed at higher pressures and more economically overall, it is proposed according to the invention that the housing include at least one pressure vessel (4) of high-pressure resistant material whose coupling opening (12) is microwave-permeable and closed in a high-pressure resistant manner, and that a single container insert is arranged in the pressure vessel (4) so as to fit closely against its inner surface.
