Customizable PTFE Crucibles for Laboratory and Industrial Applications

Product Overview

We offer high-performance PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene, commonly known as Teflon) crucibles complete with snug-fitting lids, designed for superior performance in a wide range of demanding applications. Crafted from pure, virgin PTFE, these crucibles provide exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability, making them an indispensable tool for laboratories and industrial processes where purity and inertness are paramount. The opaque white crucibles feature a smooth, non-stick surface and a tapered design for stability, with a convenient knob on the lid for easy handling.

Key Features and Advantages

Our PTFE crucibles offer a multitude of benefits derived from the unique properties of Polytetrafluoroethylene:

• Exceptional Chemical Inertness: Resistant to virtually all chemicals, including strong acids, alkalis, organic solvents, and oxidizing agents, ensuring no contamination or reaction with your samples.

• Wide Temperature Range: Suitable for use across a broad temperature spectrum, typically from -200°C to +260°C (-328°F to +500°F), allowing for diverse experimental conditions.

• Non-Stick Surface: The inherently low-friction, non-stick surface minimizes sample loss, prevents cross-contamination, and makes cleaning exceptionally easy.

• High Purity: Manufactured from high-purity PTFE, resulting in very low extractables, making them ideal for trace metal analysis and sensitive applications.

• Durability and Reusability: Robust construction ensures longevity and reusability, offering excellent value over time.

• Hydrophobic Nature: Repels water, which can be advantageous in specific applications and simplifies drying.

• Lid Included: Each crucible comes with a well-fitting lid to prevent sample contamination from the environment and minimize spillage or evaporation.

Applications

These versatile PTFE crucibles are ideal for a multitude of applications across various sectors, including:

• Analytical Laboratories: Sample digestion, ashing, evaporation, and storage for AA, ICP-MS, and other sensitive analyses.

• Chemical Processing: Handling corrosive materials and high-purity chemicals.

• Semiconductor Industry: Wet etching processes and handling of ultra-pure reagents.

• Materials Science: Synthesis and processing of novel materials.

• Geological Sample Preparation: Digestion of rock and mineral samples.

• Environmental Testing: Preparation of samples for pollutant analysis.

• Pharmaceutical Research: Handling sensitive compounds and reagents.
