Questions about Crucible tong 18/10 steel, w. plastic, handle, L=200mm
What is this article?
Crucible tong 18/10 steel, w. plastic, handle, L=200mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bochem for laboratory use. It sits in Crucibles, inside Dishes, crucibles & porcelain, in Labware.
A crucible holds a sample in a furnace or over a flame, at temperatures that would soften a borosilicate beaker. Porcelain, platinum and glazed ceramic are different articles. The form, tall or wide, decides how fast a sample dries or ashes.
A dish is an open vessel for drying, evaporating or holding a solid. Porcelain and glazed ceramic take a higher temperature than borosilicate glass, which is why a crucible, not a beaker, goes into a furnace. A watch glass covers, or holds a small amount for drying. A mortar is for grinding. The temperature and the chemical, not the shape alone, choose the material. Laboratory ware of this family is listed under ISO laboratory ware.
