Glasblæseriet
Velkommen til Glasblæseriet på Institut for Kemi
Glass is a fascinating material with great, unique properties. It can be see-through, resistant towards most chemicals and of course, it gives us a good amount of flexibility within producing new glassware and repairing broken pieces.
The AU scientific glassblowing workshop can offer:
- Production, modification and repairs of Borosilicate Glassware
- Assistance in Developing and Improving Glassware, Prototypes -lets talk about your idea!
- „Cold“ work, Grinding, sawing and drilling
- Limited, but enthusiastic, approach towards Quartz and Soft Glass
- Discussion or Demonstration of glass blowing, if you want to understand the material and its production more
- Nonscientific glassblowing, for examples presents or exhibitions
Important Information:
Please bring me only clean, fat-free and dry glassware to repair. Left over chemicals can be highly dangerous when exposed to high temperatures. Some can be a health risk when evaporated and breathed in, some can be a fire hazard quickly. I work on these things in very close proximity and cannot begin to imagine the substances you all work with. Please keep me safe :)
When in doubt, talk to me.
