Dean and Stark Moisture Test - with Stopcock
The Dean and Stark Distilling Apparatus from SmartLabs is a precision glassware setup designed for determining moisture content and performing azeotropic distillations in chemistry laboratories, schools, and research environments. It allows for accurate collection and measurement of water or other condensates produced during reflux operations.
Made from high quality borosilicate glass, this apparatus provides excellent thermal and chemical resistance for reliable long term use. It includes a graduated receiver and a side arm designed to return solvent efficiently while trapping water or other immiscible liquids. The clear graduation markings ensure precise volume readings for accurate analysis.
This distillation set is ideal for use in analytical chemistry, quality control testing, food science, and petroleum laboratories. The compact, easy to use design makes it suitable for both educational and professional applications across South Africa.
- Moisture Content Analysis: Commonly used to test petroleum products, tars, emulsified asphalts, and bituminous materials.
- Chemical Synthesis: Essential for removing water produced during chemical reactions, such as esterification, to drive the reaction forward according to Le Chatelier's principle.
- Quality Control: Used in the food industry to ensure products like bread meet moisture specifications.
