Laboratories depend on pure, clean water for the highest quality work outcomes. Different applications and processes require different levels of water purity, designated by the ASTM. For example, washing glassware in the lab can usually be done with type II...

Scientific laboratories require specialized water to ensure the quality, purity, and reliability of its work.

Proper water purification equipment is a must in order to continuously supply your lab with the appropriate water for cleaning, disinfection, reagent and sample preparation, and many other critical applications.

Archimedes’ Principle aids in determining density by providing a convenient and accurate method for determining the volume of an irregularly shaped object, like a rock.

If you work with small items or samples and are considering the purchase of a scale or balance, it is important to check manufacturer specifications related to minimum load.

The environment surrounding a balance is vital if you are to maintain the manufacturer's stated performance ratings. Really, the manufacturer doesn’t matter in this regard, as a bad environment will adversely affect any balance.

In reference to balances and scales, linearity relates to how precisely a device is calibrated and, therefore, how accurate its measurements are.

It means flexibility and the capacity to complete more measurement tasks than just weight alone. Units with a mechanism for under-balance weighing can be paired with a weight hook to help extend their versatility.

Balances are used to measure the mass of liquids, solids, and other types of samples. They provide precise information for applications in analytical chemistry.

Rotary evaporation is a laboratory technique commonly used for a variety of applications. These uses include: removing (distilling or “stripping”) a solvent or solvents from a sample, concentrating a solution, recycling solvents, or synthesizing chemicals...
