EISCO Crystallizing Dish, 500ml – Flat Bottom, with Spout – Borosilicate 3.3 Glass – Laboratory, Kitchen, Crafts

Description

Product Overview

The EISCO Crystallizing Dish is engineered for precision and durability in demanding scientific environments. Constructed from high‑quality Borosilicate 3.3 glass, the dish offers superior resistance to thermal shock, chemical corrosion, and mechanical stress. With a generous 500 ml capacity, a 4.5‑inch diameter and a 2.6‑inch height, it provides ample surface area for evaporation, crystallization, and other laboratory processes. The flat bottom ensures even heat distribution, while the integrated spout allows accurate and controlled pouring of liquids, reducing waste and improving experimental reproducibility. The dish can be safely placed over direct flame, in ovens, or in autoclaves, and it tolerates temperatures well above 300 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Its transparent glass construction enables easy visual monitoring of reactions, and the material’s low thermal expansion minimizes distortion during rapid temperature changes. Designed for both professional and educational settings, the dish meets rigorous industry standards for laboratory glassware, offering a reliable tool for chemists, educators, and hobbyists alike.

Usage

In a modern laboratory, the EISCO Crystallizing Dish serves as a versatile vessel for a multitude of tasks. Researchers use it for solvent evaporation, crystal growth, and sample preparation, benefiting from its chemical inertness and heat tolerance. In educational settings, teachers rely on the dish to demonstrate fundamental concepts such as solubility, supersaturation, and phase changes, providing students with hands‑on experience that reinforces theoretical learning. Home science enthusiasts appreciate the dish for small‑scale experiments, including DIY chemistry kits, hobbyist mineral synthesis, and artistic glasswork. The flat bottom provides a stable platform for heating on hot plates, while the spout facilitates precise transfer of liquids into other containers, minimizing spillage and contamination. Because the glass can be sterilized in autoclaves, the dish is ideal for microbiology work, where aseptic conditions are essential. Its durability also makes it suitable for fieldwork, where researchers may need to perform on‑site analyses under rugged conditions. Overall, the dish adapts to a broad spectrum of environments, from high‑tech research labs to classroom benches and home workshops.

FAQ

What is the maximum temperature the dish can withstand?

The EISCO Crystallizing Dish is rated for continuous use up to 300 °C (572 °F) and can briefly endure higher temperatures when exposed to direct flame, making it suitable for most laboratory heating applications.

Can the dish be used over an open flame?

Yes, the dish’s Borosilicate 3.3 glass composition allows safe placement over an open Bunsen burner or similar flame source without cracking, provided the temperature rise is gradual.

How do I clean and sterilize the dish?

After use, rinse the dish with distilled water to remove residues. For thorough sterilization, place it in an autoclave at 121 °C for 15‑20 minutes or soak in a mild laboratory detergent followed by a rinse. The glass’s chemical resistance ensures it remains intact after repeated cycles.

Is the spout designed for precise measurement?

The spout is engineered with a narrow, tapered opening that enables controlled flow, allowing you to transfer liquids accurately and minimize overspill, which is especially useful when measuring small volumes.

What dimensions should I consider for storage?

The dish measures 4.5 inches in diameter and 2.6 inches in height, weighing approximately 6.4 ounces. Its compact size fits standard laboratory shelves and cabinets, and the flat bottom allows stable stacking with other glassware.
