Quick answer: The Clear Glass Desiccator provides a sealed environment that keeps hygroscopic reagents and cooling crucibles free from moisture, with a transparent body for visual monitoring of the contents inside. Dessicator, Clear Glass is priced at approximately ₹640 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
The Clear Glass Desiccator creates a hermetically sealed chamber that protects moisture-sensitive reagents and anhydrous compounds from humidity in the surrounding air, and is commonly used to cool a heated crucible down to room temperature without it absorbing atmospheric moisture before weighing. The clear glass body allows the contents to be checked visually without opening the lid, which helps preserve the sealed environment. A vacuum-tight ground glass interface between the lid and base maintains the seal, making it a standard piece of equipment in analytical chemistry work where accurate, moisture-free sample handling matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a desiccator used for?
It provides a sealed, low-moisture environment for cooling heated crucibles and storing hygroscopic reagents or anhydrous compounds without them absorbing atmospheric moisture.
Does this desiccator include desiccant?
Desiccant such as silica gel is typically supplied or sourced separately; confirm with STEMAids whether desiccant is included with this listing.
What size is this desiccator?
Exact internal diameter and capacity have not been independently verified for this listing — confirm with STEMAids before ordering.
Why is clear glass used instead of another material?
Clear glass allows the contents to be checked visually without opening the lid, helping preserve the sealed, moisture-free environment inside.
Is this suitable for a college analytical chemistry lab?
Yes — desiccators are standard equipment in analytical chemistry labs for moisture-sensitive sample handling.
Is STEMAids a registered manufacturer of this product?
Yes. Eduscope Smart Learning Solutions Private Limited is a Udyam-registered micro manufacturing enterprise (UDYAM-DL-06-0069460) and is ISO 9001:2015 certified. See the About page for full registration and certification details — manufacturer-stated, verify before citing in procurement documents.
