Product Description

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom and homeschool-based projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

EISCO Scientific manufactures and supplies lab equipment for education and industry. The company, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Rochester, NY, meets International Organization of Standardization (ISO) standard 9001: 2000.

Single equilateral prism measuring 3" (75mm) long. Each face measures 1" (25mm). Made of durable, optical quality glass. Excellent tool for optical experiments, and can be used for photography lighting effects as well. Prisms will create a nice rainbow (even in room light) by using the simple led light of a smart phone. User will need to create a small slit in a black piece of paper and use that slit in front of the led which will create a light ray. The prisms will then refract the white light and create a nice rainbow on a target away from the prism. The farther away you move the target the bigger the rainbow gets and the more distinct colors the user can see. A great tool for teaching optics or for just having fun.

EISCO LABS TRUST LEARN DELIVER science physics biology classroom teaching education products school

Eisco Scientific started over 50 years ago as a small, family-owned manufacturing company serving the science education marketplace. Since then we have grown into a multinational corporation with headquarters located in both India and the United States that serve hundreds of distributors in over 100 countries throughout the world. Our mission is simple; to be TRUSTED by educators, researchers, and scientists throughout the world to design, manufacture, and DELIVER products that allow LEARNING and the development of scientific knowledge.

We produce over 6,500 unique product lines for the science education and scientific research markets. Our core product lines include:

  • Physics – Whether you are studying forces and motion or Schrödinger’s wave equation, we have the apparatus and experiments you need to study those topics and everything in between. Our business started with physics and these products remain a strong product line today.
  • Chemistry & Lab Supplies – It takes a lot of supplies and equipment to study chemistry. It has been said that if you tipped a chemistry classroom upside down, everything that falls out that is not a chemical is a product we manufacture. That includes beakers, burners, tongs, and anything made of glass, plastic, metal, ceramic or cork.
  • Biology –We provide everything a biology classroom needs except for the specimens. Our product line ranges from hundreds of anatomical models, to dissecting equipment, to microscopes and slides.
  • Glassware –We manufacture every piece of glassware you can find in a lab. Our glassware meets various international standards, including ISO and ASTM, and is made from borosilicate 3.3 glass.

This is a nice little equilateral prism. I tried to shine a light to it, but was not too successful in getting it to refract the way I wanted it to. Otherwise it is still a good product and a nice gift for a kid who is curious about optics.

We got this to supplement the materials on hand in our son's high school physics class. They had an old prism that was in pretty bad shape and this one was a perfect supplement to help the kids get a better handle on diffraction, refraction and the general function of prisms.

Does not refract light. Not optical grade. Full of bubbles.
