Stainless Steel Pans (Large Volume Pans)

Large-volume O-ring-sealed stainless-steel sample pans contain the sample in a sealed environment throughout an experiment. The Viton O-ring allows formation of a seal which suppresses the vaporization of a solvent or contains a volatile reaction product, thereby eliminating the interfering effects of the heat of vaporization.

These pans are crimped using the universal crimper press (B013-9005) and sealing insert (B050-5340)

Benefits:

Sealed capsules prevent any mass loss

Capsules can withstand an internal pressure of 24 atm

High internal pressure capability allows water samples to be heated higher than 100°C

Large sample capacity of 60ml yields higher sensitivity

Operating range of –40°C to 300°C unless otherwise limited by sample vapor pressure

Applications:

The large-volume O-ring-sealed stainless-steel sample pan is used in the study of aqueous biological solutions (such as protein in water) where the dilution requires large sample sizes and water vaporization must be suppressed. They are also used in epoxy and phenolic curing and vulcanization of rubber where the loss of volatiles can otherwise make interpretation difficult
