A crystallizing dish is a beaker with a very large diameter and short height. Its large surface allows for the solution to evaporate faster, which is necessary when recrystallizing compounds, hence its name.

General

The crystallizing dish is basically a flat beaker, with a spout. It is made of borosilicate glass, while plastic types are rarely used.

Availability

Crystallizing dishes can be bought from lab suppliers or online.
