Low Crucibles

88Labware Low Crucibles – Premium Platinum Labware for Precision High-Temperature Analysis

The 88Labware Low Crucibles are expertly engineered containers designed for precision performance in high-temperature analytical applications. Crafted from high-purity platinum or platinum-gold alloys, these low-profile crucibles are ideal for use in thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), and fusion procedures where accurate sample containment and consistent heat distribution are essential.

Their low crucible design minimizes sample depth, which enhances heat transfer efficiency and promotes uniform temperature exposure. This design not only improves the speed and precision of thermal reactions but also reduces the risk of sample spillage, making these crucibles especially useful for limited-volume or volatile samples.

88Labware’s crucibles are manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring smooth surfaces, seamless construction, and consistent wall thickness. These features contribute to reduced contamination risk and easy cleaning between cycles, enhancing overall laboratory workflow. Their exceptional resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and thermal stress makes them suitable for repeated use in rigorous environments.

Compatible with most standard analysis systems, the 88Labware Low Crucibles are trusted by professionals in research, quality control, and materials testing laboratories around the world. In addition to standard sizes, 88Labware offers customized platinum laboratory accessories, allowing customers to tailor the crucibles to meet specific instrument or project requirements.

Whether you’re analyzing metals, ceramics, or complex compounds, these high-temperature analysis crucibles offer the precision, reliability, and durability you need for consistent and accurate results.

Features of Low Crucibles

1. Low Profile Design

   • Short height with wide opening allows for greater surface area exposure, making them ideal for evaporation, ashing, and sample drying.

2. Excellent Thermal Stability

   • Made from refractory materials (e.g., alumina, porcelain, or graphite) that withstand high temperatures and thermal cycling without deformation or cracking.

3. Quick Heat Transfer

   • Shallow design enables rapid heating and cooling, enhancing efficiency in short-duration thermal processes.

4. Chemical Resistance

   • Resistant to corrosive chemicals, acids, and bases, suitable for aggressive sample types in chemical and metallurgical environments.

5. Easy Handling

   • Broad, flat base provides excellent stability on furnace plates or lab stands; some models include lips or rims for easy gripping with tongs.

6. Uniform Wall Thickness

   • Designed for even heat distribution and consistent results during thermal processing.

7. Various Sizes & Capacities

   • Available in multiple diameters and volumes to suit different laboratory and industrial needs.

8. Reusable & Durable

   • Can withstand multiple heating cycles without loss of integrity, making them cost-effective over time.

9. Common Applications

   • Ideal for:

     • Ashing procedures

     • Evaporation of liquids

     • Short-term heating

     • Metal melting or powder sintering
