Crucible

A crucible is a high-temperature vessel used in laboratories or industrial processes to melt or heat substances that require extreme heat. Made from materials like ceramics or metals that can withstand very high temperatures, it allows scientists or workers to safely contain and analyze materials during heating. Crucibles are essential in metallurgy, chemistry, and manufacturing for processes like melting metals, identifying material properties, or facilitating chemical reactions at elevated temperatures. Their sturdy construction ensures safety and precision in handling materials that would otherwise be difficult to contain or manipulate at such high heat levels.
