Replace the cover and fit the appropriate location bosses.
•
The location boss for 1 litre vessels is supplied with the flask.
•
500 ml, 250 ml and 125ml flasks use the same location boss, as
supplied with the platform.
Siliconising Glassware
•
All glassware is siliconised before being dispatched. It will
eventually require resiliconising in order to maintain its water
repellant qualities.
•
CAUTION: THE WORKROOM MUST BE WELL VENTILATED.
•
Clean the glassware thoroughly and ensure it is free from grease.
•
Wash out and immerse the glassware in a water repelling
treatment such as Merck Ltd, "Repelcote VS".
•
Make sure the glassware is fully wetted by the solution.
•
Allow the solvent to evaporate. There will normally be sufficient
absorbed by water on the glassware to hydrolyse "Repelcote VS"
to a highly water repellent silicone film.
