Platinum Wire

Product Description

General information

Platinum wires are valuable for applications in laboratories. Using platinum wires carefully will ensure its longevity in applications. Platinum wires can withstand repeated use in high temperature, tough atmospheres in laboratories such as hydrogen, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, etc., used for experiments.

Platinum wires are highly pure so it retains the element’s properties like resistance to corrosion and heat. It can bear majority of the acids. It is also beneficial for electrolytic use in laboratories. Wires are available in different lengths and diameters, customised on request.

Convection oven

Product Description

Our convection ovens are specifically designed for general drying, heating, and thermal applications where a gentle airflow is required. These ovens rely on natural air circulation, providing even heat distribution without the need for a fan. This makes them ideal for processes involving sensitive samples, as the absence of forced airflow minimizes the risk of sample disturbance, contamination, or dehydration.

Key Features:

Temperature Range: Designed to operate efficiently at temperatures ranging from ambient +10°C to 250°C, these ovens provide precise thermal control for a wide variety of applications.

Uniform Heat Distribution: The natural airflow ensures consistent temperature throughout the chamber, making it suitable for drying glassware, sample curing, and testing that requires stable, low-turbulence heating conditions.

Sizes: Available in a variety of chamber sizes, from compact benchtop models starting at 30 liters, to larger, more spacious units up to 180 liters, catering to both small-scale laboratory work and more demanding industrial applications.

Ideal Applications:

Drying and curing delicate materials

Heat treatment processes

Slow and gentle heating of samples in life sciences, material testing, and chemical research

Each oven is equipped with intuitive controls for precise temperature settings, durable stainless steel interiors, and multiple safety features, making them a reliable and essential tool in laboratories, quality control environments, and industrial processes.

Benefits and Uses of Convection oven

In a laboratory setting, convection ovens serve essential functions in various scientific processes, providing controlled heat treatment for precise, consistent results. Here are the main benefits and uses of laboratory convection ovens:

Benefits of a Convection Oven in Labs

Uniform Heat Distribution:

The built-in fan circulates hot air evenly, ensuring consistent temperatures throughout the chamber, which is critical for applications requiring precise, uniform heating.

Reduced Drying Time:

Convection ovens allow for faster drying times by moving heated air across samples. This benefit makes them efficient for drying, curing, and dehydration processes in labs.

Temperature Stability and Control:

Laboratory convection ovens are designed with precise temperature controls, allowing for stable, consistent heating. This is essential for repeatable results and minimizes errors in sensitive applications.

Energy Efficiency:

By reaching and maintaining desired temperatures quickly and consistently, convection ovens in labs are more energy-efficient than conventional ovens, saving time and resources.

Enhanced Safety Features:

Many lab-grade convection ovens include safety features such as over-temperature alarms, automatic shut-off, and heat-resistant doors, which help reduce the risk of accidents in laboratory environments.

Uses of Convection Ovens in Labs

Drying and Dehydration:

Convection ovens are widely used to dry samples, glassware, or equipment by evaporating moisture quickly and evenly, essential in preparing samples for weighing or further analysis.

Curing and Polymerization:

In material science and chemistry labs, convection ovens are used to cure polymers, adhesives, and coatings, which requires precise, consistent heat to achieve optimal material properties.

Baking and Aging:

Convection ovens help simulate aging by exposing materials to specific temperatures over time, useful in testing the durability and longevity of products such as rubber, plastics, and coatings.

Sterilization:

Used to sterilize non-flammable equipment, tools, and glassware by heating to temperatures that destroy microorganisms. Convection ovens are an alternative to autoclaves for items sensitive to moisture.

Annealing and Heat Treatment:

Metals, ceramics, and alloys undergo annealing in convection ovens to relieve internal stress, enhance ductility, and alter mechanical properties, crucial for applications in metallurgy and materials research.

Evaporation of Solvents:

Labs use convection ovens to evaporate solvents safely from chemical mixtures. This is especially beneficial in preparing samples for qualitative and quantitative analysis.

Moisture Content Analysis:

Convection ovens are commonly used to measure moisture content in various materials. Samples are dried at controlled temperatures to constant weight, allowing accurate measurement of residual moisture.

Sample Pre-Treatment:

In analytical labs, convection ovens pre-treat samples by removing moisture, and stabilizing them for testing in procedures like chromatography, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis.

When Not to Use Convection Ovens in Labs

Convection ovens may not be suitable for highly volatile materials or samples sensitive to oxidation due to the circulating air, which can encourage reactions. In such cases, vacuum ovens or inert gas purged systems are preferable.

In summary, laboratory convection ovens provide reliable, even heat for drying, curing, sterilizing, and other applications that require precise temperature control, making them indispensable for research, quality control, and analytical laboratories.
