FAQs of SILICA CRUCIBLE:
Q: How should fused silica crucibles be handled during high-temperature applications?
A: When using fused silica crucibles at elevated temperatures up to 1700C, always employ proper tongs and personal protective equipment. Allow the crucible to cool gradually to avoid thermal shock and extend its service life.
Q: What types of chemicals can be safely processed in these crucibles?
A: These crucibles exhibit excellent resistance to most acids and corrosive agents except hydrofluoric acid. They are chemically inert, making them suitable for a wide range of substances in analytical and industrial procedures.
Q: When is it beneficial to choose a lid for the crucible?
A: A lid is advantageous when you wish to minimize contamination or prevent sample loss due to evaporation, especially during melting, calcination, or ashing processes. Lids can be supplied as per requirement.
Q: Where are high purity silica crucibles most commonly used?
A: They are widely used in laboratories, metallurgical settings, glass manufacturing, chemical industries, and research facilities for precise melting, sample analysis, and high-temperature processes.
Q: What is the process for selecting the appropriate crucible size for my application?
A: Select the crucible size based on your sample volume requirements. Capacities range from 10 ml to 1000 ml, and custom sizes can be tailored to specific needs for both single or multiple specimens.
Q: How does the thermal expansion coefficient benefit laboratory applications?
A: The low thermal expansion coefficient (0.5 x 10^-6 /C) of these crucibles reduces the risk of cracking during rapid temperature changes, enhancing durability in rigorous laboratory protocols.
