Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the primary use of a laboratory desiccator?
A desiccator is used to cool heated objects in a moisture-free environment or to store chemicals and samples that are highly hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). The base holds a drying agent (desiccant) that absorbs humidity from the sealed chamber.
Do I need to use vacuum grease on the lid?
Yes. The ground-glass flange on the base and the matching lid are engineered to fit closely together, but they are designed to form a truly airtight seal only when the user applies an even, thin layer of appropriate laboratory vacuum grease.
What type of glass is used for this desiccator?
This desiccator is produced using heavy-walled, high-quality Borosilicate 3.3 glass to ensure chemical durability and long operational life under standard laboratory conditions.
Can this specific desiccator be used with a vacuum pump?
This model is a standard (non-vacuum) desiccator. If your protocol requires actively drawing a vacuum, you should select a Vacuum Desiccator equipped with a dedicated stopcock. Regardless of the model, users should always inspect heavy-walled glass for physical damage prior to use.
