The heating blanket is a laboratory equipment that generates heat in an efficient, environmentally friendly, clean and safe way, making it an essential equipment, whether for technological, research or production applications. It is mainly used for heating or tempering organic liquids placed in reaction boilers, round-bottomed flasks or reaction vessels for boiling, evaporating, distilling or extracting.
Some liquids in the laboratory tend to burst when exposed to direct heat, or they may release flammable organic vapors that are heavier than air and may explode upon contact with open flames. The heating blankets have a closed heating system, designed to avoid these dangers.
