Hot plates are pieces of equipment used to heat glassware and/or its contents in scientific applications. Most hot plates are available with a ceramic or metal surface that is chemical and acid resistant. These high-quality laboratory devices have been designed for applications where boiling acid for a long period of time is necessary.
Hot plate stirrers use magnetic force alongside a hot plate to stir and heat liquids, without motions which may cause spillages. The liquid is placed in a glass beaker or container onto the hotplate. A rotating magnetic field then causes the liquid to spin. This spinning action causes a stirring motion. Hot stirrers often come with adjustable dials for different paces of stirring.
