FAQ

What materials is this filtering flask made from?

The flask is constructed from high-quality borosilicate glass, which provides excellent resistance to thermal shock and chemical corrosion. This material maintains structural integrity across temperature variations from -20°C to 150°C, making it suitable for various laboratory applications involving heating and cooling cycles.

Is this flask compatible with standard laboratory filtration setups?

Yes, the PEKYBIO 500ml Filtering Flask features a standard neck size that interfaces seamlessly with most laboratory filtration apparatus. It works effectively with Buchner funnels, filter adapters, and vacuum systems commonly found in research and industrial laboratories without requiring special adapters or modifications.

What is the maximum temperature this flask can withstand?

The borosilicate glass construction allows safe operation at temperatures up to 150°C for short durations and continuous use at 120°C. However, sudden temperature changes should be avoided to prevent thermal stress. Always follow standard laboratory safety protocols when working with heated materials.

How accurate are the measurement markings on the flask?

The graduation markings are precision-etched and calibrated to industry standards, providing measurement accuracy within ±2% of the stated volume. The markings remain legible throughout the product’s lifespan and won’t wear off during routine cleaning and sterilization processes.

Can this flask be autoclaved for sterilization?

Yes, the borosilicate glass construction makes the flask suitable for autoclave sterilization at standard laboratory conditions. It withstands repeated sterilization cycles at 121°C without compromising structural integrity or measurement accuracy, making it ideal for applications requiring aseptic techniques.
