Cole-Parmer Thermo Scientific Nalgene Vacuum Desiccator with Polycarbonate Cover offers a durable and efficient solution for storing moisture-sensitive materials. This desiccator features a transparent polycarbonate cover and a blue polypropylene base, both of which are lightweight, shatter-resistant, and capable of withstanding a full vacuum (28" Hg) for up to 24 hours. The gasketless design simplifies operation—only grease is required to create an airtight seal. With its PTFE stopcock, the desiccator is compatible with 1/4" ID tubing and allows easy handling of the cover, making it an ideal choice for lab environments. It is also compatible with all solid desiccants, including acids and alkalis, ensuring versatile usage in various applications.
