High-temperature furnace to determine the percentage of ash in polymers.
The Muffle Furnace is used to determine the percentage of ash in polymers. In the test, a weighed polymer sample is heated to a high temperature so that the organic material burns off completely, leaving behind only the inorganic ash or filler. By weighing this residue, the ash content of the material can be calculated — an important check of filler and reinforcement levels in plastics and compounds.
With a temperature range from ambient to 1150°C, a 4″ × 4″ × 9″ working chamber and rugged M.S construction, the furnace provides stable, uniform heating for ash content, loss-on-ignition and other high-temperature laboratory tests. Furnaces with other chamber sizes can also be supplied to suit different sample volumes.
