EISCO Evaporating Basin, 1000ml – Flat Bottom, with Spout – Borosilicate 3.3 Glass – Mixing Dish Bowl, Laboratory, Kitchen, Crafts

Description

Product Overview

The EISCO Evaporating Basin is engineered for precision and durability in demanding environments. Constructed from premium Borosilicate 3.3 glass, the basin resists thermal shock, chemical corrosion, and mechanical stress, ensuring a long service life even when exposed to direct flame or aggressive solvents. Its flat bottom provides a stable platform for uniform heating, while the integrated spout enables controlled pouring of concentrated residues without splashing. With a 1000ml capacity, the basin measures 2.3 inches in base diameter, expands to 5.9 inches at the rim, and stands 3.4 inches tall, offering ample volume for a variety of laboratory and culinary tasks. The clear glass design allows easy visual monitoring of liquid levels, and the heavy‑duty construction adds confidence during repeated handling and sterilization cycles. Whether used for evaporating excess solvents, preparing reagents, or serving as a mixing bowl in a kitchen or craft studio, this basin delivers consistent performance across a broad temperature range.

Usage

In professional laboratories, the basin excels at evaporating volatile solvents, concentrating solutions, and preparing samples for downstream analysis. Its chemical resistance makes it compatible with acids, bases, and organic solvents, while the flat bottom ensures even heat distribution on hot plates, heating mantles, or open flames. In educational settings, the basin provides a safe, transparent vessel for students to observe phase changes and practice proper handling techniques. Beyond the lab, the basin’s generous volume and sturdy glass are ideal for kitchen applications such as reducing sauces, melting chocolate, or mixing batter where heat tolerance and easy pouring are essential. Craft enthusiasts also benefit from the basin’s clear walls for resin casting, dye blending, or creating decorative glass art. The spout’s ergonomic design reduces the risk of spills, and the basin can be safely sterilized in autoclaves or by soaking in cleaning solutions, making it a versatile tool for any environment that demands reliability and precision.

FAQ

Can the basin be used over an open flame?

Yes. The Borosilicate 3.3 glass is specifically formulated to withstand direct flame and rapid temperature changes, making it safe for use on Bunsen burners, hot plates, and other open‑flame heating devices.

Is the basin compatible with acidic or basic solutions?

Absolutely. Borosilicate glass offers excellent chemical durability, so the basin can handle strong acids, bases, and organic solvents without degradation or leaching.

How should I clean and sterilize the basin?

The basin can be washed with mild detergent and warm water, then rinsed thoroughly. For sterilization, it is safe to autoclave or soak in a 10% bleach solution, followed by a final rinse to remove any residues.

What is the maximum temperature the basin can endure?

The glass can tolerate temperatures up to 350 °C (662 °F) without cracking, allowing it to be used for high‑heat applications such as reflux, distillation, or high‑temperature reductions.

Will the spout clog when evaporating viscous liquids?

The spout is designed with a smooth interior to minimize buildup. For very viscous residues, a gentle rinse with warm water after use will keep the spout clear and maintain optimal flow.
