Usage Guidelines of Quartz Glass Beaker
To maximize the performance and lifespan of your TOQUARTZ® quartz beakers, follow these recommended handling, usage, and storage guidelines. Proper care ensures continued accuracy, optical clarity, and thermal resistance.
Handling Recommendations
- Always handle with clean gloves or tongs to prevent contamination and fingerprints that can etch into the surface during high-temperature applications.
- Avoid mechanical shock; while quartz is more durable than standard glass, impact can still cause micro-fractures that may develop into breaks during thermal cycling.
- When transporting heated beakers, use appropriate heat-resistant holders designed for laboratory glassware.
- Do not place hot quartz beakers directly on cold surfaces; use a heat-resistant mat or ceramic plate to prevent thermal shock.
Temperature Management
- For optimal performance, temperature increase should not exceed 300°C per minute, especially when beakers contain liquids or solids.
- When cooling from high temperatures (>800°C), allow gradual cooling at approximately 200°C per minute to prevent thermal stress.
- Maximum recommended continuous operating temperature is 1100°C, with short exposures possible up to 1200°C.
- For applications involving liquid nitrogen or other cryogenic materials, pre-cool beakers gradually to minimize thermal shock.
Cleaning Protocol
- For routine cleaning, rinse with deionized water followed by a final rinse with laboratory-grade ethanol or acetone.
- For removing stubborn residues, soak in a 10% nitric acid solution, followed by thorough rinsing with deionized water.
- Avoid abrasive cleaning materials that can scratch the surface and create nucleation points for cracks.
- For sterilization, autoclave at standard conditions (121°C, 15 psi) or heat to 500°C for 30 minutes in a clean furnace.
Storage Guidelines
- Store in dust-free cabinets, preferably wrapped in lint-free paper or stored in dedicated containers to prevent dust accumulation and surface contamination.
- Keep away from areas with mechanical vibration that could cause movement and potential damage through contact with other items.
- For long-term storage, ensure beakers are completely dry to prevent mineral deposits from forming on the surface.
- Periodically inspect stored beakers for signs of damage before returning to service.

FAQ
Q: Are TOQUARTZ quartz beakers resistant to hydrofluoric acid (HF)?
A: While our quartz beakers show excellent resistance to most chemicals, hydrofluoric acid (HF) is an exception. HF reacts with silica (SiO₂) to form silicon tetrafluoride and water. The rate of reaction depends on HF concentration, temperature, and exposure time. For very dilute HF solutions (< 1%) at room temperature, limited short-term exposure may be possible, but we do not recommend using quartz beakers for HF-containing solutions. For applications involving HF, we recommend using specialized containers made of fluoropolymers like PTFE or PFA.
Q: Can quartz beakers be used directly on open flames or hotplates?
A: Yes, quartz beakers can be used directly on laboratory hotplates, over Bunsen burners, or in direct flame applications. However, we recommend the following precautions: (1) Use a wire gauze or ceramic-centered wire gauze between the flame and beaker to distribute heat more evenly; (2) When heating on hotplates, ensure the beaker bottom is clean and the hotplate surface is flat; (3) Avoid sudden temperature changes when the beaker contains liquids; (4) For direct flame applications, introduce the beaker gradually to the heat source. While quartz has excellent thermal shock resistance, following these guidelines will maximize the service life of your beakers.
Q: How accurate are the volume markings on TOQUARTZ quartz beakers?
A: The volume markings on our standard quartz beakers are provided as approximate guides rather than for precise volumetric measurement. For standard beakers, volume accuracy is typically within ±5% of the indicated volume. If precise volumetric measurement is critical for your application, we recommend using calibrated volumetric glassware in conjunction with our quartz beakers, or requesting specially calibrated quartz beakers, which we can produce with volume accuracy within ±2% for specific applications. Each calibrated beaker undergoes individual verification and is supplied with a calibration certificate.
Q: How do quartz beakers differ from standard laboratory glass beakers?
A: Quartz beakers differ from standard borosilicate glass beakers in several important ways: (1) Temperature resistance: Quartz can withstand up to 1200°C versus 500-600°C for borosilicate; (2) Chemical purity: Our quartz is 99.99% SiO₂, whereas borosilicate contains various other oxides; (3) Thermal expansion: Quartz has approximately 1/3 the thermal expansion coefficient of borosilicate, making it much more resistant to thermal shock; (4) UV and IR transmission: Quartz allows transmission of UV and IR wavelengths that would be blocked by standard glass; (5) Chemical resistance: Quartz offers superior resistance to most acids (except HF) and bases.
Q: Can TOQUARTZ provide quartz beakers that match the specifications of other manufacturers?
A: Yes, we can produce quartz beakers that match or exceed the specifications of other manufacturers. If you’re looking to replace or supplement existing laboratory equipment, we can work from dimensional samples, competitor part numbers, or technical specifications to create compatible replacements. This capability is particularly valuable for laboratories facing supply chain challenges with their current vendors or seeking cost-effective alternatives without modifying existing procedures or equipment setups. Please provide as much detail as possible about the items you wish to match, including dimensions, markings, and any special features.
