PORCELAIN BOAT

Whatsapp Order

 Product Description
A Porcelain Boat is a small, shallow, boat-shaped laboratory vessel made from high-quality, heat-resistant porcelain. It is designed primarily for the safe heating, drying, and combustion of solid substances. The smooth, glazed surface of the porcelain resists chemical corrosion and thermal shock, allowing for direct application of heat using burners such as Bunsen flames. Porcelain Boats are widely used in chemical analysis, qualitative testing, and sample preparation to hold small quantities of powders, crystals, or other solids during ignition or ashing procedures. Their shape facilitates easy pouring and transfer of materials and is ideal for use in muffle furnaces or over direct flames.

Description

 Primary Uses
Chemical and Laboratory Applications
