Proper techniques and storage solutions are key to not breaking laboratory glassware so your data and laboratory equipment stays intact.

Our high quality volumetric flasks will give you the best results as we use only the best materials for our products. Whatever you need a class b volumetric beaker for, look no further. We have all the best volumetric beakers to meet your needs and scientific requirements.

What is Volumetric Flasks, Beakers, Cylinders?

The volumetric beaker is a specialized vessel in the laboratory glassware category that is made from borosilicate ace glass and is a must have in a lab. Many volumetric beakers have ground glass joints which allows easy sealing and compatibility with various stopper types or screw caps. This lab glassware provides accurate measurements with its flat bottomed body and narrow neck and also high heat tolerance.

Serological glassware, another key component of laboratory glassware, should be kept separate from other glassware to prevent contamination and integrity during serological procedures.

Most of our wide mouth volumetric beakers are glass but we also have other laboratory liquid measuring tools in plastic and steel like filter flasks, beakers, pipettes and graduated cylinders

Key Features and Benefits of Volumetric Flasks, Beakers, Cylinders

At Certified MTP we are the most trusted and reliable material testing products in the market. Made with precision and built to last our wide mouth class b volumetric beaker will give you the best results and optimal outcome. We also have kohlrausch volumetric beaker made from ace glass and comes with ptfe stoppers and screw caps, perfect for dwk life sciences and to measure sugar content, as per iso standard specification.

When comparing volumetric flasks with other laboratory glassware and labware, you need to handle, store and care for each differently to prevent breakage and contamination.

Lab Glassware

Lab glassware is an essential part of any scientific laboratory, plays a major role in various experiments, tests and procedures. The quality and accuracy of lab glassware can affect the outcome of experiments so it’s important to choose the right type of glassware for specific applications. From volumetric flasks to beakers and test tubes, each piece of glassware is designed to do specific function with precision. Understanding the basics of lab glassware and its importance will help you get successful and reliable results in your scientific endeavors.

Materials Used in Lab Glassware

Lab glassware is made from various materials, each with its own properties and advantages. The most common materials used in lab glassware are:

  • Borosilicate Glass: Known for its high thermal resistance, chemical inertness and clarity, borosilicate glass is used in lab glassware like volumetric flasks, beakers and test tubes. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and resist chemical reactions makes it perfect for precise and accurate measurements.

  • Soda Lime Glass: A cost effective alternative to borosilicate glass, soda lime glass is used in lab glassware that doesn’t require high thermal resistance or chemical inertness. It may not be suitable for all applications but is good for situations where extreme conditions are not a concern.

  • Plastic: Plastic lab glassware like polypropylene and polymethylpentene is lightweight, shatter resistant and used in applications where glass is not suitable. These materials provide a practical solution for certain laboratory tasks, easy to use and durable.

Storing and Handling Glassware

Proper storing and handling of lab glassware is important to prevent breakage, contamination and damage. Here are some tips for storing and handling glassware:

  • Store Glassware: Keep your glassware in a dry, clean environment, away from direct sunlight and moisture. This will help to maintain the integrity and longevity of the glassware.

  • Specially Designed Racks: Use specially designed racks and storage solutions to prevent breakage and contamination. These racks will provide secure and organized storage, reduces the risk of accidental damage.

  • Handle with Care: When handling glassware, avoid sudden movements and impacts. Gentle handling will prevent cracks and breakage, keep the glassware in good condition.

  • Clean Immediately: Clean and dry glassware immediately after use to prevent contamination and residue buildup. Prompt cleaning will maintain the clarity and accuracy of the glassware.

Cleaning and Sterilizing Glassware

Cleaning and sterilizing lab glassware is important to prevent contamination and get accurate results. Here are some tips for cleaning and sterilizing glassware:

  • Mild Soap and Water: Clean glassware with mild soap and water, no abrasive materials and harsh chemicals that can damage the ace glass.

  • Sterilization Methods: Sterilize glassware using autoclaving, dry heat or chemical sterilization methods. Choose the right method for the type of glassware and level of sterilization required.

  • Cleaning Schedule: Implement a cleaning schedule to ensure regular cleaning and maintenance of glassware. Regular cleaning will maintain the accuracy and reliability of your experiments.

  • Dirty Glassware: Using dirty glassware can contaminate experiments and affect results. Always make sure glassware is clean and sterilized before use.

Applications and Usage of  Volumetric Flasks, Beakers, Cylinders

Lab glassware is used in:

  • Measuring and Mixing Chemicals: Accurate measurement and mixing of chemicals is important for successful experiments. Volumetric flasks and beakers are used for this purpose.

  • Storing and Transporting Samples: Glassware like test tubes and Erlenmeyer flasks are used to store and transport samples safely and securely.

  • Experiments and Tests: Lab glassware is used in experiments and tests, provides the necessary tools for precise and controlled procedures.

  • Preparing Solutions and Dilutions: Volumetric flasks are used for preparing solutions and dilutions with high accuracy.

  • Calibrating Instruments and Equipment: Glassware is used for calibrating instruments and laboratory equipment, to get accurate and reliable measurements.

Some common types of laboratory glassware are:

  • Volumetric Flasks: Used for precise measurement and dilution of solutions.

  • Erlenmeyer Flasks: Used for mixing and heating chemicals.

  • Beakers: Used for measuring and mixing chemicals.

  • Test Tubes: Used for storing and transporting samples.

Lab glassware is an essential part of any laboratory and its quality and accuracy can affect the outcome of experiments. By knowing the materials used in lab glassware, storing and handling techniques and cleaning and sterilization methods, scientists and researchers can get accurate and reliable results. Whether you’re using volumetric flasks, Erlenmeyer flasks or other types of glassware, following the protocols and guidelines is important to achieve success in the laboratory. Thermo Fisher Scientific and DWK Life Sciences are one companies that provides excellent product line.
