Distilling Flasks

Distilling flasks, also known as distillation flasks or bulb flasks, are essential laboratory glassware used in the distillation process. They are specifically designed for heating and vaporizing liquids to separate components based on differing boiling points. These flasks are characterized by their bulbous shape, which allows for efficient heating and the smooth transfer of vapors. The narrow neck of distillation flasks plays a crucial role in preventing spillage and ensuring the controlled release of vapors. Made from heat-resistant glass, they can withstand high temperatures without compromising structural integrity or chemical purity. The key benefits of distilling flasks include their durability and chemical resistance, making them suitable for repeated use in diverse chemical reactions. Their specific design enhances the efficiency and safety of the distillation process, making them a fundamental tool in any laboratory conducting chemical separations or purifications.

Thomas Scientific also has a variety of other flasks suitable for a variety of laboratory need.
