Columns & Condensers

Columns: Laboratory columns are cylindrical glass apparatus used in chromatography and chemical reactions. They facilitate the separation, purification, and analysis of compounds by allowing a mixture to pass through a stationary phase within the column, enabling different components to be isolated based on their properties.

Condensers: Condensers are essential in distillation and reflux processes. These glass devices cool vapor into liquid by providing a surface for heat exchange, often using water or another cooling medium. Common types include Liebig, Graham, and Allihn condensers, each designed for specific cooling efficiencies and applications.
