Standard Specification for Laboratory Glass Kjeldahl Flasks
ABSTRACT
This specification provides standard dimensional requirements for glass Kjeldahl flasks for nitrogen digestion analysis. The ungraduated flasks, Type I, and graduated flasks, Type II, shall conform to the specified capacities. Flasks shall be made of borosilicate glass, conforming to the required maximum residual stress, tolerance of volumetric accuracy, and dimensions.

Laboratory Glass Kjeldahl Flasks
This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1377; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope 3.2 Graduated Flasks, Type II, shall be of the following
capacity:
1.1 This specification provides standard dimensional re-
800 mL, graduated at 1000 mL
quirements for glass Kjeldahl flasks for nitrogen digestion
analysis.
NOTE 1—The term millilitre (mL) is commonly used as a special name
3
for the cubic centimetre (cm ) and similarly the litre (L) for 1000 cubic
centimetres, in accordance with the International System of Units (SI).
