Melting point is defined as the temperature at which a substance changes into liquid state from solid state. Different substances have different melting point and hence it has been used as a fundamental method for defining various substances

Melting Point Apparatus is a precision instrument designed to determine single or mixed melting points of solids including plastic up to a certain temperature. It is suitable for testing plastic samples for purity and for identifying unknown substances. The apparatus serves as an important instrument in research and analysis.

Salient Features

• The apparatus is provided with a thermometer that is capable of responding quickly to temperature changes.
• It is capable of giving accurate results consistently.
• The apparatus makes use of rapid heat and cooling plug facilities, which gives rapid and economic throughput of plastic samples.
• The equipment is provided with a useful store for keeping melting point capillary tubes.
• There is a variable viewing background, which provides best contrast between the plastic sample tube and the background illumination.
• The equipment is supplied with a hold switch, which suspends the temperature display when melting point of plastic sample is achieved.

Application

There are many different applications of Melting Point Apparatus. Some of its common applications are:

• Plastic Industry
• Chemical Engineering
• Medicine Analysis
• Pharmaceuticals Industry
• Research & Analysis
• Perfume Manufacturing
• Dyestuff
• Organic Crystal Substances
