if they are sealed doublewall you'll heat the air inbetween the walls and it'll blow up/out I'd think
or: you'd burn the outside badly while waiting for the inside wall to heat up enough to transfer the heat to the liquid. Air is a good insulator. |

Any double walled item wil become a "bomb" if enough heat is applied and the material is thin enough.
Are you talking about go cups? I can't imagine anyone making a double walled item to be placed directly on heat. No Lawyer is that good. In the old days when a thermos had glass inside they would crack quick as shit if people heated them like that. |

I believe the air between the layers is there for insulation. It'll take a LOT longer to heat up whatever is inside, plus like the others have said, it may blow up.

air expands when it's heated. That's why you if you burn bamboo without puncturing it's inner walls it will explode.

That warning was made for idiots like me.
When I was pretty young, like 7 or 8, I took mom's mixing bowl and wanted to boil water. After waiting forever, I gave up in frustration and picked up the bowl. When I touched the bottom, I burned my fingers pretty badly. Sat the bowl down on the kitchen counter, and burned the counter top. |
