evaporating basin

Rotary evaporators are often quicker to use than evaporating basins.

An evaporating basin or evaporating dish is a small basin used to evaporate liquids to obtain the dry forms of the substances dissolved in them.

Unlike wire gauze, which primarily supports glassware such as beakers, laboratory flasks, or evaporating basins and provides indirect heat transfer, the pipeclay triangle normally supports a crucible and allows the flame to heat it directly.
