Muffle Furnace
A Muffle Furnace is a high-temperature laboratory instrument designed to heat samples in a controlled environment, isolating them from direct flame or combustion gases. Unlike general heating devices, a muffle furnace delivers precise, uniform, and repeatable heating essential for material testing ,ashing, and heat treatment in research and quality control.
The furnace works by enclosing the sample inside a heated chamber where temperatures can reach up to 1200°C or higher. This controlled environment allows for processes like sample ashing, sintering, annealing, and decomposition without contamination.
This instrument trusted by professionals across many industries for applications such as:
- Pharmaceutical chemical sample ashing
- Ceramic and metal sintering
- Heat treatment of materials
- Environmental sample preparation
- Quality testing of minerals and ores
- Thermal decomposition studies
