This category encompasses a range of essential, multipurpose laboratory vessels and tools molded from durable, chemical resistant plastics, most commonly polypropylene (PP) or polymethylpentene (PMP/TPX). Unlike glassware, plasticware offers superior resistance to breakage, making it safer and more economical, particularly in student laboratories.
High Breakage Resistance: Provides significantly greater safety and durability compared to traditional glass labware, minimizing replacement costs and hazards from shattering.
Excellent Chemical Resistance: Manufactured from high quality polypropylene or other polymers that resist corrosion from a wide range of laboratory chemicals, including strong acids and alkalis.
Clear Graduation: Items like Beakers and Measuring Cylinders feature clear, easy to read, molded or printed graduations for quick and reliable volume approximation.
Temperature Tolerance: Polypropylene items can be autoclaved and safely handle liquids at higher temperatures than standard household plastics, expanding their utility in various experiments.
Lightweight and Ergonomic: The light material makes these items easy to handle, pour, and store, reducing user fatigue and simplifying general laboratory tasks.
Material: High quality, chemically inert plastics, typically Polypropylene (PP) or PMP (TPX).
Included Items: Beakers (various sizes), Measuring Cylinders (various capacities), and Funnels (various diameters).
Capacity Range: Available in common laboratory sizes, from 10ml measuring cylinders up to 2,000ml beakers.
Temperature Rating: Suitable for continuous use up to temperatures typically around 120 degrees C (Polypropylene).
Application: General mixing, transferring, storing, and approximate volume measurement in educational and chemical labs.
