Dean & Stark Apps
The Dean & Stark Apparatus is a laboratory glassware assembly designed for the determination of water content in petroleum products, bituminous materials, and other samples by azeotropic distillation. It provides accurate moisture measurement for analytical, quality control, and research laboratories.
The Dean & Stark Apparatus is a specialized laboratory glass apparatus used to determine the water content of petroleum products, bitumen, oils, food products, and other materials through the azeotropic distillation method. Typically manufactured from high-quality borosilicate glass, the apparatus consists of a distillation flask, graduated receiving trap, and condenser, allowing water to be separated from the sample and collected for accurate measurement.
Widely used in petroleum testing laboratories, chemical industries, food testing laboratories, research institutions, and quality control facilities, the Dean & Stark Apparatus supports standardized moisture determination procedures. Its transparent glass construction allows clear observation of the distillation process, while the graduated receiver enables precise measurement of collected water. The apparatus is an essential analytical tool for laboratories requiring reliable water content analysis and compliance with established testing methods.
