    A rapid method heats air to 463.15 K (190.00 °C; 374.00 °F) for 6 minutes for unwrapped objects and 12 minutes for wrapped objects. [20] [21] Dry heat has the advantage that it can be used on powders and other heat-stable items that are adversely affected by steam (e.g., it does not cause rusting of steel objects).
