Rust Race Lab Investigation (Product Code: SLE/CH/173) introduces oxidation-reduction reactions through a problem every student has seen: iron and other metals slowly corroding. Working in teams, the class performs redox reactions, measures how much oxygen is used up as metal corrodes, tests which metals corrode, and compares how well different rust inhibitors protect a surface. Planned for a class size of 40 students, it is a chemistry experiment kit for India’s secondary and junior college classrooms, supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

The investigation works well as a short sequence rather than a single lesson. Students begin with simple redox reactions to see electrons being transferred between a metal and a solution, then set up corrosion samples that are left for a period and checked at intervals. Measuring oxygen consumption turns rusting from a vague idea into a quantity: as iron corrodes in a closed space, the loss of oxygen can be observed and recorded, which reinforces why air and moisture are both needed for rust to form.

The “race” element comes from comparing samples side by side. Teams test different metals and different protective treatments, predict which will corrode fastest, and then judge the rust inhibitors on their own evidence. This leads naturally into discussion of painting, oiling, galvanising and sacrificial protection in bridges, vehicles and pipelines. Label every sample clearly, keep a dated observation log and wear eye protection when handling any solutions.

Silicone Oil (Product Code: SLE/CH/174) is a 50ml quantity of silicone oil intended for the Microscience Combostill, the small-scale unit used in microscale chemistry practicals. Schools and colleges that run Microscience equipment keep it on hand so the Combostill can be prepared and topped up as described in its instructions. As a chemistry consumables supplier in India, Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, supplies it alongside other Microscience items.

Key Details

Typical Use

Silicone oils are valued in laboratories because they stay stable when warmed, repel water and do not react with most chemicals, which makes them a common choice where a clean, inert fluid is needed around small apparatus. In a microscale programme the Combostill is used repeatedly across many classes, so a separate supply of oil avoids interruptions when the original quantity runs low or becomes contaminated.

Always follow the Combostill instructions for where the oil goes and how much to use. Dispense it with a clean dropper or pipette, keep the container closed between uses so dust and moisture stay out, and replace oil that has become cloudy or discoloured. Silicone oil makes benches and floors slippery, so wipe any drips straight away. Laboratory coordinators who stock spares from one lab consumables supplier in India often order the oil together with replacement tubing for the same Microscience kits.

Supplier

This consumable is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which operates under the ScienceLab name from Ambala, Haryana, and supports schools with both apparatus and the spares that keep it running. For vendor registration, the company’s GSTIN is 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and its Legal Entity Identifier is 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. More about us is on the company profile page.

Silicone Tube (Product Code: SLE/CH/175) is a 25cm length of silicone tubing formed with a U bend, used as a connecting part in the Microscience system for small-scale student practicals. Laboratory assistants order it to replace tubes that have become worn, stained or lost, keeping each Microscience kit complete for the next class. It is one of the lab equipment spare parts supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Key Details

Typical Use

In microscale chemistry, reactions are carried out in small plastic apparatus, and flexible tubing links one part of the set-up to another so that gases or liquids can pass between them. Silicone is well suited to this job because it stays soft and flexible, tolerates warm conditions better than many ordinary rubbers and does not react with most classroom reagents. The ready-made U bend lets the tube turn back on itself without kinking, which keeps the passage open in a compact arrangement on the bench.

Fit the tube by easing it over the connector with a slight twist rather than forcing it, and check each joint before starting a reaction. After the practical, rinse the tube through with clean water, shake out the drops and let it dry fully before packing it back into the kit. Replace any tube that has become sticky, cracked or permanently stained. Schools that keep a small stock of such lab equipment accessories in India find it easier to run every Microscience workstation at full strength.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and is based in Ambala, Haryana, supplies this replacement tube as part of its support for schools using microscale chemistry equipment. You can read about the company on our company profile.

Simple Cell Kit (Product Code: SLE/CH/176) consists of a 150mm high x 100mm diameter glass jar complete with zinc and copper plates, giving students everything needed to assemble a basic voltaic cell and see chemical energy turned into electricity. It is widely used in school chemistry and physics lessons on cells, reactivity and current, and serves as a straightforward electrochemical cell kit for school laboratories. The kit is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

The teacher half-fills the jar with a suitable electrolyte, and students stand the zinc and copper plates in it so they do not touch. When the plates are joined through a voltmeter or a small bulb, a reading appears because zinc, the more reactive metal, gives up electrons more readily than copper. This single set-up covers several syllabus points at once: the reactivity series, oxidation at one electrode and reduction at the other, and the idea that a cell needs two different conductors in an electrolyte.

Leaving the circuit connected for a few minutes shows the classic weakness of the simple cell. Bubbles collect on the copper plate and the output falls, which introduces polarisation and explains why improved designs such as the Daniell cell were developed. Afterwards, empty the jar, rinse the jar and plates with water and dry them; lightly clean the zinc with fine abrasive paper before the next class so that fresh metal is exposed.

Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited produces this kit under its ScienceLab brand in Ambala, Haryana, where the company makes chemistry and physics apparatus for schools, colleges and technical institutes. Find out more on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the Simple Cell Kit?
A glass jar measuring 150mm high x 100mm diameter, plus a zinc plate and a copper plate.

Is the electrolyte included?
No electrolyte is listed in the kit. The school prepares it according to its practical guide, and acids must be diluted and handled with eye protection.

What voltage will the cell produce?
The output depends on the electrolyte, the condition of the plates and the meter used, so we do not quote a fixed figure; measuring it is part of the experiment.

Why does the reading drop after a while?
Gas bubbles build up on the copper plate and reduce the current, an effect called polarisation. Removing the plates and wiping the copper restores the output for a short time.

Can I order replacement plates?
Please ask through our contact page for spare zinc and copper plates to suit this jar.

What warranty applies?
Warranty terms are confirmed with each quotation. Include the quantity and delivery location in your enquiry; we supply schools across India and international markets.

Simple Gas Preparation Kit (Product Code: SLE/CH/177) is a compact set for producing gases that can be collected over water, such as oxygen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, in school chemistry practicals. Its plastic tank does double duty as the water trough during the experiment and, with its lid, as a storage box for every other component afterwards. For schools looking for tidy gas collection apparatus in India, the kit is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

The tank is filled with water and the gas chimney shelf is placed inside so that a water-filled test tube can stand inverted over it. Reactants go into the side-arm test tube, and the gas produced travels through the delivery tube and tubing connector, bubbling up through the shelf to displace water from the collecting tube. Once a tube is full, it is stoppered under water, lifted out and placed in the test tube stand, and the next tube is set up, so a group can collect several samples in one run.

Collected samples lend themselves to the standard identification tests: a glowing splint for oxygen, a lighted splint for hydrogen and limewater for carbon dioxide. The thistle funnel is useful when liquid reagent must be added to the generator during the reaction. Reagents are not part of the kit, so prepare them according to your practical guide and wear eye protection. When the lesson ends, rinse and dry the parts and pack them back into the tank, which keeps the set complete for the next class.

Titration Kit, Student, Microscience (Product Code: SLE/CH/178) is a self-contained MicroTitration kit designed for accurate and efficient titrations in secondary school experiments. Working at microscale, each student or pair can carry out a full titration with small volumes of solution, and results compare very well with traditional Class B glassware. It is a practical titration kit for school laboratories in India, manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

The kit is built for the core volumetric analysis practical in secondary chemistry: finding the concentration of an acid or alkali by neutralising it against a standard solution with an indicator. Because the volumes are small, every learner can run their own titration instead of watching a demonstration, reagent use and waste drop sharply, and spills are far less hazardous than with a full-size burette. That makes it a sensible volumetric analysis kit for crowded classes or schools with limited bench space.

For good results, rinse each part with the solution it will hold, expel any air bubbles before starting, add titrant slowly near the end point and repeat until two readings agree closely. The stated reproducibility means students can be asked to judge concordance themselves, which builds real analytical habits. After use, rinse all parts with clean water, allow them to dry and return them to the kit so it stays complete for the next group.

Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the brand of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, an Ambala, Haryana company that makes teaching apparatus for school and college laboratories. The company is incorporated under CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597 and manufactures at its licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414).

Voltameter (Product Code: SLE/CH/179) is a compact electrolysis unit with platinum electrodes and two graduated test tubes of 10ml capacity, mounted on a base with terminals for connection to a direct-current supply. Teachers use it to split water into its gases and let students compare the volumes collected at each electrode, making it a dependable piece of electrolysis apparatus for Indian school and college laboratories. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

Specifications

Typical Use

For the classic electrolysis of water, water made conductive by a little dilute acid is placed around the electrodes, the two graduated tubes are filled completely and inverted over the platinum electrodes, and a low-voltage DC supply is connected to the terminals. Bubbles rise at both electrodes almost at once, and after a few minutes students can read the volumes directly from the graduations: the tube over the negative electrode collects hydrogen at roughly twice the volume of oxygen gathered over the positive electrode.

Platinum is used because it is inert and is not eaten away during electrolysis, so the only products are the gases themselves and the electrodes last for many sessions. The unit also supports simple quantitative work, such as showing that the volume of gas grows with the time the current flows. Switch off the supply before either tube empties completely, confirm the gases with a glowing or lighted splint away from the supply, and rinse the apparatus with clean water after the lesson without touching or bending the electrodes.

Manufacturer

This voltameter is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana manufacturer that trades as ScienceLab and builds electrochemistry and general science apparatus for educational laboratories. More about the company is available on our company profile.

Related Chemistry Lab Equipment

Useful items for powering the voltameter or extending electrolysis work:

• Power Supply Variable — a DC source that lets students vary the current and compare gas output.
• Connecting Wire — to link the terminals to the power supply.
• Hoffman Voltameter — a larger alternative for demonstrations to a whole class.
• Voltameter, Copper — for studying electrolysis through the mass of copper deposited.

See more in our Chemistry Lab Equipment category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the electrodes made of?
Platinum, which stays unchanged during electrolysis and gives clean gas collection.

How much gas can each tube hold?
Each of the two graduated test tubes has a capacity of 10ml, so volumes can be read directly without a separate measuring cylinder.

Is a power supply included?
No power supply is listed. Connect a low-voltage DC source to the terminals on the base; ask us if you would like one quoted with the voltameter.

How is this different from a Hoffman voltameter?
This unit uses two graduated test tubes over electrodes mounted on a base, making it compact for student benches, whereas a Hoffman voltameter is a larger all-glass apparatus often used for class demonstrations.

How should the platinum electrodes be looked after?
Rinse them with clean water after use, avoid touching or bending them and never scrape them with abrasives.

Is a calibration certificate or warranty provided?
Please discuss documentation and warranty terms with us through our contact page; they are confirmed with each quotation.

Vortex Mixer (Product Code: SLE/LS/06) is a bench-top tube mixer used for vigorous re-suspension of cells or chemical pellets and fast mixing of small samples in life-science, physical and chemical analysis laboratories. It offers touch and continuous operation with variable speed from 0 to 2500 rpm, and specially designed vacuum suction feet keep it steady during use. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for labs sourcing a vortex mixer in India.

Specifications

What Is a Vortex Mixer Used For?

A vortex mixer moves its tube cup in a small, fast orbit; pressing a tube onto the cup sets up a vortex in the liquid that mixes or re-suspends the contents within seconds. It is used to bring cell or chemical pellets back into suspension after centrifugation, to mix reagents with samples, and to dissolve small amounts of solid in tubes. It is standard microbiology lab equipment in India for colleges running cell culture and molecular biology practicals.

In touch mode the mixer runs only while a tube is pressed onto the cup, which suits quick one-after-another mixing; continuous mode keeps it running for longer tasks. Start at a low speed and increase gradually, hold each tube firmly near its base, and keep caps closed so nothing splashes out.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The tubes you mix, so we can confirm fit (the listing gives up to 15 ml and mentions up to 50 ml)
• The number of units required
• Any centrifuge tubes or tube racks to add to the order

Supplier

Related Laboratory Stirrer

Equipment used before and after vortex mixing:

• Laboratory Centrifuge — spins down the pellets that the mixer later re-suspends.
• Micro Centrifuge Tube, 1.5ml — small tubes for vortex mixing.
• Test Tube Racks — hold tubes before and after mixing.
• Orbital Shaker, Digital — for gentler, longer mixing of flasks.
• Magnetic Stirrer — for stirring larger volumes in beakers.

See all mixers and stirrers in the Laboratory Stirrer category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What speed does the Vortex Mixer run at?
The Vortex Mixer (SLE/LS/06) has variable speed regulation from 0 to 2500 rpm. Low speeds suit gentle mixing of sensitive samples, while higher speeds give the vigorous action needed to re-suspend cell or chemical pellets.
