This work aims to describe the socio-technical network of a Chemistry laboratory in the school “Professora Maria do Rosário Castaldi”, a State Center for Professional Education in the city of Londrina, Brazil, taking the translation theories proposed by Bruno Latour as motivation. The observation data were either recorded in audio or written in a diary, following the laboratory studies perspectives, particularly those of the Actor-Network Theory. According to these perspectives, the laboratory can be understood as an imbricate network composed of several elements, instances, interests, partnerships, procedures and knowledge, all of which produced by human and non-human entities that constitute the objects and meanings known to us as sciences or scientific practices. In addition, the concept of translation—a key concept of this theoretical body—helped to understand the heterogeneous set of elements mobilized by its actors with the aim of making the laboratory a recognized and consolidated organization. The observation and description of the material indicate how the network makes the analyzed laboratory something that is both completely dependent on and producer of the network in which it operates. Namely, the manner such process of materialization of the laboratory is dependent on a number of associations, negotiations, strategies, and alignments performed by human and non-human actors, linking the largest number of elements in order to make the construction of this space possible. The discussion allowed one to conclude that its permanence and success are not guaranteed, given that the whole process of collective action is always about to break or fall apart at any point.

这项工作旨在描述“ Professora Maria doRosárioCastaldi”学校化学实验室的社会技术网络是位于巴西隆德里纳市的国家职业教育中心，它以布鲁诺·拉图尔（Bruno Latour）提出的翻译理论为动力。遵循实验室研究的观点，尤其是Actor-Network理论的观点，观察数据以音频记录或以日记形式记录。根据这些观点，实验室可以理解为一个由多个要素，实例，利益，伙伴关系，程序和知识组成的紧密网络，所有这些要素都是由人类和非人类实体产生的，构成了我们所熟知的对象和含义。科学或科学实践。此外，翻译的概念是该理论机构的关键概念，有助于理解其参与者动员的各种元素，目的是使实验室成为一个公认的，经过巩固的组织。对材料的观察和描述表明了网络是如何使被分析的实验室完全依赖于其运行所在的网络以及该网络所在的生产者的。即，实验室实现过程的方式取决于人类和非人类行为者进行的许多关联，谈判，策略和调整，这些行为将最大数量的元素联系在一起，以便使该空间的构建成为可能。 。通过讨论，我们可以得出结论，不能保证其持久性和成功，
