Rocket Synergy 4D is for drying single large volumes of solvent, from a few litres up to approximately 100 litres. The system can also be used for a single batch of up to 5 litres. Rocket Synergy 4D provides fast, safe evaporation for solvents with a boiling point of up to 165°C (DMF) and can easily dry aqueous samples. Automatic evaporation of volumes up to 100 litres Eliminates bumping or foaming Easy vessel manipulation with no glassware to handle Safe, easy product recovery and system cleaning

Frozen state solutions are a critical product stage or end product in a variety of industries, including freeze drying, pharmaceuticals, food storage and biotech. The Lyotherm3 combines electrical and thermal techniques. This unique dual analysis adds a new dimension to the data of this critical stage. Impedance Analysis (Zsinφ) is a fixed frequency dielectric analysis providing an indication of the sample tracks molecular mobility, including events not picked up by thermal methods like DTA or DSC Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) measures the difference in temperature between a sample and a reference, highlighting exothermic and endothermic events e.g. crystallisation, eutectic melting and glass transitions Combining DTA and Impedance analysis means Lyotherm is more sensitive to changes within the frozen structure than other exclusively thermal techniques.

Kinematics & Controls Corporation’s compact modular powder filling systems have proved to be popular in environments where not only precise material dosing is required, but also in areas where companies seek to make the process more efficient, maximising potential product throughputs. Powder is picked up by vacuum and compacted to a constant density within a cylindrical fill chamber. It is subsequently dispensed by the application of low-level, positive-pressure air. The use of a pre-defined vacuum force, compressing the powder sample to a uniform/ even density is the key to achieving the high level of repeat dose accuracy. Cumbersome, time-consuming, hand-weighing is thus eliminated. A wide range of standard gun sizes and filters with various porosities are offered for use with the variety of powders and container sizes which the customer’s process might demand. A custom, 8-up, Micro-Well kit can also be specified, to streamline the filling of 96-cavity well plates.

The Series 3 HT evaporator range from Genevac represents the ultimate in solvent removal technology. Genevac-014 A Solution for High Throughput Evaporation Genevac HT series evaporators are the ideal solution for parallel evaporation bottlenecks in high throughput and production laboratories having high performance and high sample capacities. The unique design of the multi-layer rotor ensures efficient use of valuable laboratory bench space as well as high performance and high throughput evaporation. This proven design has now been updated with the latest version, the Series 3.

The Emulsiflex range of high pressure homogenisers from Avestin are ideal for a wide range of applications, commonly use d within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and fine chemicals industries. These include cell lysis, particle size reduction, nanoparticles, emulsions (emulsification), and liposome preparation. Additionally, it offers reliable, consistent processing at adjustable pressures of up to 45,000 psi, Both air-powered and electrically-powered systems are available, and options include filter/extruder attachments, temperature control mechanisms and automatic pressure control. The unique Emulsiflex design ensures that there are no ‘O’-rings or gaskets in the entire path of the product. This means less risk of contamination, easier cleaning and no leakage.

Toluene is a liquid chemical compound utilized in the manufacturing of many commercial products, including paints and glues. Colorless and insoluble in water, toluene can be dangerous when its fumes are inhaled, causing neurological damage and intoxication. Because of this, toluene is sometimes abused as an inhalant drug. Individuals who use paints and thinners frequently, like those who work with such products professionally, wear face masks in order to minimize the inhalation of toluene. Beyond its uses, however, toluene’s chemical structure is quite interesting of its own accord. Toluene demand growth in Europe is expected to be positive but low at a rate less than GDP. Demand will get a fillip in 2009 following the start-up of ExxonMobil’s new TDP unit in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Diisocyanates are a family of chemical building blocks mainly used to make polyurethane products, such as rigid and flexible foams, coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers. Many of the products we rely upon every day are safer and more comfortable through the use of polyurethanes made possible by diisocyanates. Polyurethane chemistry is complex, but the basics are relatively easy to understand. Polyurethanes are produced by combining diisocyanates with polyols and other chemical additives. Because a variety of diisocyanates and a wide range of polyols can be used to produce polyurethane and the speed of the reaction can be adjusted, a broad spectrum of materials can be produced to meet specific application needs. Diisocyanates are important in the production of countless products, particularly in the transportation and construction industries. TDI is used primarily in the production of flexible foams.

Hydrochloric Acid is a corrosive, strong mineral acid with many industrial uses. A colorless, highly pungent solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in water, when it reacts with an organic base it forms a hydrochloride salt. With major production starting in the Industrial Revolution, hydrochloric acid is used in the chemical industry as a chemical reagent in the large-scale production of vinyl chloride for PVC plastic, and MDI/TDI for polyurethane. It has numerous smaller-scale applications, including household cleaning, production of gelatin and other food additives, descaling, and leather processing. About 20 million tonnes of hydrochloric acid are produced worldwide annually. It is also found naturally in gastric acid.

Sodium hydroxide, otherwise called Caustic Soda, is an inorganic compound with chemical formula NaOH. It is called caustic soda because it is highly corrosive in nature. It is available in many forms in the industry, and the most common forms are caustic soda flakes and caustic soda pearls. This product has several industrial applications but it is highly reactive, so it has to be used carefully lest, it can cause skin irritation. Caustic Soda is a strong base with a wide range of applications in different industries. Worldwide, the major users of caustic soda are the aluminum industry, pulp & paper and the chemical industry. The main applications are water treatment and water purification, as cleaning agent, or a wide range of uses in chemical industry like starch production or for the desulphurization in the petrochemical industry.
