Applications and Experiments for the Porcelain Mortar and Pestle
Grinding a solid increases its surface area, so it dissolves, reacts or mixes more evenly. The mortar and pestle is therefore used to prepare samples for many practicals, from simple salt analysis to plant extractions, and belongs among school chemistry lab equipment in India.
- Class 6–10 science: powdering chalk, salts or leaves for mixture and separation activities.
- Class 11–12 chemistry: grinding salts before qualitative analysis, then taking portions with a steel Spoon for Substances.
- Class 11–12 biology: crushing leaves to extract pigments for paper chromatography with a Chromatography Set.
- Pharmacy and B.Sc. labs: triturating and blending powders before weighing them on a Chemical Semi-Analytical Balance.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each unit comprises one white porcelain mortar, 80 mm in diameter, together with its porcelain pestle. Spatulas, weighing bottles and the substances to be ground are separate items that can be added on request, and they will appear as separate lines on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A single mortar and pestle can be quoted just as readily as a set for every student pair in a laboratory. The quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for your quantity, and other porcelain items such as dishes and crucibles can be combined on it.

Mortar sets for a whole class can be requested through the enquiry cart or the contact page, and the lab tender page sets out how bids are quoted.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size is this mortar?
The mortar is 80 mm in diameter and the length is 90 mm. It is sized for small bench quantities of salts and samples rather than bulk grinding of large batches.
Is the pestle included?
Yes. It comes with a porcelain pestle (porcelain press), so the set is ready to grind and mix materials as soon as it arrives, with no separate pestle to order.
Who supplies the Porcelain Mortar and Pestle?
Science Lab Supplies is the point of contact for this set and dispatches it from Ambala, India. It prepares quotations for a single school laboratory as well as for pharmacy colleges, distributors and tender contractors.
How should the mortar be cleaned?
Wash it with water and a brush after each use, grinding a little clean sand if residue remains, and dry it fully before storing so that traces of one sample do not pass into the next.
