Description
VAOF178 Fused Quartz Absorption Cuvette is a 2-window cuvette with an 8 mm optical path length and a 17 ml volume.
It features a wide clear wall design, ideal for UV/VIS absorbance measurements where shorter path lengths are preferred for handling higher-concentration samples.
Fused fabrication ensures superior thermal stability and excellent chemical resistance, making it well-suited for demanding laboratory environments.
Key Features
- 8 mm optical path length — ideal for medium to high concentration absorbance measurements.
- 2-window design — optimized for standard straight-beam UV/VIS spectroscopy.
- Fused fabrication — high thermal resistance up to 600 °C and chemical durability for most acids and bases.
- Wide wall geometry — supports stable optical transmission with minimal background interference.
- Broad wavelength range — 190 – 2500 nm, suitable for UV/VIS and NIR applications.
Typical Applications
- UV/VIS absorbance and transmission studies.
- Quantification of concentrated samples or strong absorbers.
- Protein and nucleic acid measurements at 260/280 nm.
- Environmental and chemical analysis.
- Quality control in R&D and production labs.
Fused Fabrication Notes
- Fused fabrication offers excellent temperature and chemical resistance.
- Not suitable for hydrofluoric acid (HF) or strong organic solvents like toluene and acetone.
- Powder seams may discolor with some samples but do not affect performance.
- Typical path length tolerance is ±0.06 – 0.08 mm.
