About This Product
Students use a wash bottle to rinse precipitates on filter paper, wash down the sides of a flask during titration and bring a solution up to the mark in a volumetric flask. Separate, labelled bottles are kept for water and for solvents such as acetone, ethanol and methanol, and the same bottle is handy for wiping up small spills on the bench. Schools, colleges and institutes in Mozambique, Estonia, Equatorial Guinea, Vietnam and Iran can order the Wash Bottle from Educational Instrument.
