Description
Product Overview
The Eisco 120 ml evaporating dish is a precision‑engineered laboratory vessel designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern scientific research. Constructed from fully glazed porcelain, the dish offers a chemically inert surface that resists corrosion from acids, bases, and organic solvents, ensuring that sample integrity is maintained throughout heating and drying processes. The round form, complemented by a carefully positioned spout, facilitates even distribution of heat and efficient removal of condensate, minimizing the risk of uneven evaporation or sample loss. With an outer diameter of 94 mm, the dish provides ample surface area while maintaining a compact footprint that fits comfortably within standard laboratory equipment such as hot plates, drying ovens, and rotary evaporators. The porcelain material is not only durable but also easy to clean, allowing for rapid turnaround between experiments. Each dish weighs approximately 2.47 ounces, making it lightweight enough for easy handling yet robust enough to withstand repeated thermal cycling without cracking or warping.
Usage
The evaporating dish excels in a variety of laboratory settings. In organic synthesis labs, it is routinely used to evaporate solvents after a reaction, concentrating the product for further purification. Its smooth glazed surface prevents the adhesion of viscous residues, allowing for straightforward scraping or rinsing. In analytical chemistry, the dish serves as a reliable platform for drying solid samples before weighing, ensuring that moisture does not skew mass measurements. The integrated spout enables controlled removal of condensate, which is especially valuable when working with temperature‑sensitive compounds that require gentle evaporation. The dish is also compatible with microwave drying units, where its porcelain composition tolerates rapid temperature changes without compromising structural integrity. Researchers in biology and biochemistry appreciate the dish for drying culture media plates, enzyme preparations, and other aqueous solutions, as the non‑reactive surface eliminates the risk of contaminant leaching. Overall, the dish is suited for any application that demands a clean, inert, and heat‑resistant container for solvent removal, sample concentration, or gentle drying.

FAQ
Can the dish be used with aggressive acids or bases?
Yes. The fully glazed porcelain surface is chemically resistant to most acids, bases, and organic solvents. While it performs well with typical laboratory reagents, extremely concentrated hydrofluoric acid should be avoided, as it can etch porcelain over prolonged exposure.
Is the dish compatible with microwave drying ovens?
Absolutely. Porcelain tolerates rapid temperature changes, making the dish suitable for microwave-assisted drying. It is recommended to monitor the process closely and avoid direct contact with metal components to prevent arcing.
How should the dish be cleaned after use?
Cleaning is straightforward: rinse the dish with distilled water to remove residual solvents, then wash with a mild laboratory detergent if needed. For stubborn residues, a gentle scrub with a non‑abrasive brush is sufficient. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air‑dry before the next use.
What warranty does Eisco provide for this product?
Eisco offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. If the dish cracks or shows glaze imperfections under normal laboratory conditions, contact our support team for a replacement or refund.
Can the dish be stacked for storage?
Yes, the dishes can be safely stacked when clean and dry. To prevent scratching, place a soft protective layer such as lint‑free paper or a silicone mat between stacked units.
