Combustion Boat
Product Description
The Combustion Boat is a small, heat-resistant container typically made of porcelain or quartz, designed to hold samples during combustion analysis. It is used primarily in laboratories to contain solid or powdered samples that are subjected to high temperatures for elemental analysis, especially in organic and inorganic chemistry. The boat withstands extreme temperatures without reacting with the sample, ensuring accurate and uncontaminated results.
Primary Uses
Laboratory Applications
- Holds samples for combustion analysis in elemental analysis instruments like CHNS analyzers.
- Used in thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) for studying sample decomposition.
- Serves as a container for solid or powdered materials during heating and combustion processes.
Secondary Uses
Industrial Applications
- Utilized in quality control labs for material composition verification.
- Employed in research and development for analyzing fuel and material samples.
