Description
Hard porcelain crucible lid 79 D/4 with a diameter of 60 mm is a laboratory accessory intended to cover matching porcelain crucibles during heating, ashing and ignition procedures. Fabricated from hard porcelain, the lid forms a reliable cover that helps keep sample material inside the crucible and reduces the chance of external contamination while thermal treatment is under way. The 79 D/4 designation marks the size series, and the 60 mm diameter provides a secure fit on the corresponding crucibles commonly found in analytical laboratories. Delivered as a single piece from manufacturer IDL GmbH, the lid complements standard porcelainware assortments used for gravimetric work and residue determination. Hard porcelain construction maintains shape and integrity through repeated furnace and hot-plate cycles. Consistent lid geometry supports reproducible sample handling from the start of heating through final cooling, making the item a practical addition to any set of laboratory crucibles employed in quantitative inorganic analysis or materials testing.

Questions about Crucible lids, porcelain, 79 D/4, Ø 60 mm
What is this article?
Crucible lids, porcelain, 79 D/4, Ø 60 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IDL GmbH 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.
