Glass Beakers for Science Chemistry Lab Classrooms
Science Chemistry Plastic Laboratory beakers, constructed of various types of plastic may be used for measuring, mixing, pouring, or heating liquids, depending on their construction. The wide mouth opening of a beaker provides easy access to add ingredients, mix using a stir bar or stir rod, thermometer, and perform other classroom lab procedures. Graduated markings on the side, when present, offer less accuracy and precision than graduated cylinders and volumetric flasks.
