DISTILLED WATER

DISTILLED WATER: 5L, 20L

•  Distilled Water available in 5-Litres or 20-Litre for ideal use in the school laboratory.

(Wikipedia excerpt: ..."...Distilled water [DW] is water that has been purified by boiling it into vapor then condensing it back into liquid in a separate container. Impurities in the original water that do not boil below or near the boiling point of water remain in the original container. In chemical and biological laboratories, as well as in industry, in some appliances, deionized water or reverse osmosis water can be used instead of [DW] as a cheaper alternative. If exceptionally high-purity water is required, double [DW] is used.

In general, non-purified water could cause or interfere with chemical reactions as well as leave mineral deposits after boiling away. One method of removing impurities from water and other fluids is distillation. For example, ions commonly found in tap water would drastically reduce lifespans of lead–acid batteries used in cars and trucks. These ions are not acceptable in automotive cooling systems because they corrode internal engine components and deplete typical antifreeze anti-corrosion additives.[4]....")
