MUFFLE FURNANCE

A muffle furnace is a high-temperature laboratory device used for a variety of heating applications, including ashing, sintering, annealing, and materials testing. It is designed to provide precise and uniform heating in a controlled environment, with a focus on eliminating contamination and ensuring accurate results.

The furnace features an insulated chamber, or “muffle,” that separates the heating elements from the sample, protecting it from direct contact with the heat source. This design allows for consistent temperature control and prevents sample contamination. Muffle furnaces are commonly used in metallurgy, materials science, ceramics, and environmental testing.
