China Dish (Product Code: SCL287/048) is a round, white porcelain evaporating dish used to drive water off a solution so that the dissolved solid remains or crystallises, in school, college and technical labs. Its 3 inch diameter and pouring spout suit student-scale work, and crystals show up clearly against the chemical-resistant white porcelain. This evaporating dish for lab use in India and abroad is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

A common first practical is recovering salt from a salt solution: the solution is filtered, poured into the dish and heated gently until most of the water has gone, leaving white crystals. In crystallisation activities for school classes, a warm saturated solution of copper sulphate is concentrated in the dish and then left to cool so that blue crystals grow. Biology students use the same dish to concentrate plant extracts or to dry small samples before weighing.
Support the dish on a tripod with a wire gauze and heat it steadily rather than fiercely; when only a little liquid remains, lower the flame to stop the solid spitting. The spout lets you pour off the remaining liquid or decant a solution without dribbling down the outside. Lift a hot dish with tongs and let it cool on a heat-proof mat, not on a cold wet bench.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this china dish and produces it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. The company is a registered MSME manufacturer (Udyam UDYAM-HR-01-0003714) and ships export orders under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A issued by the DGFT. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers buy factory-direct, and repeat orders for matching dishes are handled by the manufacturer itself, so simply ask us. See our company profile for more.

What size is the China Dish?
The China Dish is round with a 3 inch diameter and a pouring spout, a size that suits student-scale evaporation of salt or copper sulphate solutions. For other diameters, please ask on our contact page and we will tell you what can be quoted.
What is the spout on the china dish for?
The spout on the china dish lets you pour off remaining liquid, decant a solution or transfer a concentrate cleanly, so nothing dribbles down the outside of the dish and onto the flame or the bench.
Can the china dish be heated over a flame?
Yes, the china dish can be heated for evaporation, as porcelain dishes routinely are. Heat gradually on a wire gauze and avoid sudden temperature changes; if you need a stated maximum temperature, ask us before ordering, because none is listed.
Which chemicals can be used in the china dish?
The china dish is made of chemical-resistant porcelain, so it suits the salt solutions and reagents used in school and college practicals. For unusual or strongly corrosive chemicals, check with us before use.
How do I remove crystal residues from the china dish?
To clean the china dish, let it cool, soak it in warm water to dissolve the crystal residue, then wash it with detergent and rinse with distilled water. Avoid scraping the porcelain with sharp metal tools.
