Drying Oven and Ball Mill reservations

Please use iLab to reserve time/space in the drying oven and to use the ball mill.

Drying Oven

The oven can only be used to dry the water moisture out of samples.  It cannot accommodate organic solvent dry downs or corrosive liquids such as acids or bases.  Up to 3 users can reserve time in the oven.  When making your reservation, please estimate the actual time that you will require to complete your sample dry down and reserve enough time.  Identify the temperature that you require in the “Event Notes” of the reservation, and complete the form that asks about your sample type.  The Event Notes are visible on the calendar. If someone else has already reserved the oven, please look at the Event Notes of their reservation and make sure the temperature is compatible with your samples.

While drying, samples should be labeled with name and contact info (post-it notes on the door work).

Please complete this form to acknowledge the drying oven guidelines and gain access to this resource.
