Custom Polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE Petri Dishes 60mm Corrosion Resistant Low Background Labware

Product Overview

This high-purity laboratory vessel represents the pinnacle of fluoropolymer engineering, specifically designed for researchers who require absolute chemical inertness and a contaminant-free environment. Crafted from premium-grade polytetrafluoroethylene, the unit provides an uncompromising solution for sample preparation, evaporation, and cultivation where traditional glass or standard plasticware would fail. By leveraging the unique molecular properties of PTFE, this system ensures that even the most sensitive trace analysis workflows remain free from leaching and background interference.

The equipment is primarily utilized in sectors such as semiconductor manufacturing, environmental trace metal analysis, pharmaceutical development, and advanced materials science. Because the surface energy of the material is exceptionally low, it serves as an ideal substrate for membrane casting and the handling of viscous or aggressive reagents. The unit is available as a custom-fabricated solution, allowing for precise modifications to dimensions, wall thickness, and geometry to meet the specific throughput and ergonomic requirements of industrial laboratory environments.

Built for long-term reliability, this unit withstands extreme thermal cycling and exposure to nearly all known industrial chemicals, including hydrofluoric acid and concentrated nitric acid. The robust construction and heavy-walled design ensure that the equipment maintains its structural integrity under vacuum or high-temperature conditions. Buyers can invest in this system with total confidence, knowing it delivers consistent, repeatable performance in the most demanding analytical and processing applications.

Key Features

• Exceptional Chemical Resistance: The unit is manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE, providing universal resistance to acids, bases, and organic solvents. This makes the equipment indispensable for processes involving aggressive media like hydrofluoric acid or aqua regia, where borosilicate glass would be compromised.
• Zero Leaching and Low Background: Engineered for trace analysis, the material is inherently free of catalysts, plasticizers, and UV stabilizers. This ensures that no metallic or organic impurities leach into the sample, providing the low-background environment necessary for parts-per-trillion (PPT) sensitivity in ICP-MS and other analytical techniques.
• Superior Non-Stick Surface Properties: With a coefficient of friction as low as 0.110, the equipment prevents the adhesion of samples, membranes, or residues. This non-stick characteristic facilitates the complete recovery of high-value extracts and simplifies the cleaning process, even when working with "sticky" biological samples or synthetic polymers.
• Broad Thermal Stability Range: This system maintains mechanical stability across a wide temperature spectrum, from cryogenic levels (-200°C) up to a continuous service temperature of +260°C. This allows the unit to be used for high-temperature digestions and low-temperature storage without the risk of thermal shock or cracking.
• Custom CNC Precision Fabrication: Unlike mass-produced molded labware, these units can be custom-machined to exact specifications. Whether your process requires a specific depth, a reinforced rim, or a unique base geometry for integrated heating blocks, our bespoke manufacturing process delivers parts with tight tolerances and superior surface finishes.
• Exceptional Mechanical Durability: Featuring a Shore D hardness of 55 and high tensile strength, the unit is virtually unbreakable compared to glass alternatives. This durability reduces replacement costs and enhances laboratory safety by eliminating the risk of shattered glass in hazardous environments.
• Hydrophobic and Moisture Resistant: With a water absorption rate of only 0.01% over 24 hours, the equipment ensures that no moisture is retained within the material structure. This is critical for anhydrous reactions and high-precision gravimetric measurements where atmospheric moisture could skew results.
• Smooth, Crevice-Free Internal Finish: The manufacturing process ensures that the internal surfaces are super smooth and free of pores or crevices. This prevents cross-contamination between batches and ensures that no microscopic particles are trapped within the vessel walls.
