Dean-Stark Apparatus – Borosilicate Glass, with and without Condenser
Dean-Stark apparatus for accurate determination of water in oils, fats, resins, and petrochemical products. Ideal for azeotropic distillation analysis. Made of high-resistance borosilicate glass.
Dean-Stark Apparatus for Water Determination in Oils and Fats
The Dean-Stark apparatus is designed for the quantitative determination of water in liquid samples using the azeotropic distillation method. This technique separates water from a mixture by heating it with an immiscible solvent, such as toluene, and collecting the condensate by density.
The device includes a graduated trap where separated water accumulates, allowing for accurate and repeatable measurements. It is an essential tool in chemical analysis, quality control, and research laboratories.
Technical Features
- Material: high-resistance borosilicate glass, resistant to heat and chemical agents.
- Method: azeotropic distillation with immiscible solvents (toluene, xylene, etc.).
- Available models: with condenser and without condenser.
- Applications: analysis of oils, fats, resins, petrochemical products, and food samples.
Manufactured to laboratory standards, the Dean-Stark apparatus ensures precision, durability, and reliability in every measurement.
