Alcohol lamp is a heating tool, which uses alcohol as fuel and is widely used in laboratories, factories, medical treatment, scientific research and other fields. Because no smoke is produced during combustion, the purpose of sterilization can also be achieved by burning instruments. Due to the heat generated in the combustion process of alcohol lamp, other experimental materials can be heated
Its heating temperature is above 400- 1000℃, which is safe and reliable. Alcohol lamps can be divided into hanging alcohol blowtorch and sitting alcohol blowtorch, as well as the conventional alcohol lamps mentioned in this paper. In general, the most common material in the laboratory is glass, and alcohol lamps cannot be blown out by mouth. It is best to cover them with a lamp holder and isolate them from oxygen to put out the fire.
Main applications
Alcohol lamps are often used for low-temperature heating in chemical experiments. However, alcohol lamp is difficult to be effective in the case of high temperature in experiments such as "reducing copper oxide with charcoal". In addition, when alcohol lamp is used for flame reaction, the yellow flame of alcohol lamp will also interfere with the experimental phenomenon.
How to raise the temperature of alcohol lamp flame and eliminate the yellow color of alcohol lamp flame has always been a big problem in chemical experiment teaching. The "Multi-purpose Colorless Flame Alcohol Lamp" developed by us integrates alcohol lamp and blowtorch, which can skillfully eliminate the "yellow" of the lamp flame in the case of normal lighting, and provides convenience for flame reaction, glass tube processing, general heating and high temperature and strong heat experiments.
