Handling & Precautions
- Heat gradually to prevent thermal shock and extend lifespan
- Allow to cool naturally; avoid quenching or sudden temperature changes
- Clean using non-abrasive cleaners; avoid strong mechanical scrubbing
- Do not expose to direct flame without proper support or a heating stage
- Store carefully to prevent chipping of rims and edges
- Use within recommended temperature limits for optimal performance
Applications
- Analytical chemistry: evaporation, ash determination, gravimetric analysis
