Continuous Flow Glass Microreactor Platform

The Continuous Flow Glass Microreactor Platform holds multilayer glass reactor plates for mixing, reaction and heat transfer in a frame that connects to HPLC or syringe pumps and a temperature-control unit. Modules connect in series or in parallel, for liquid–liquid and gas–liquid, single-phase and multiphase reactions. Microchannels give a large surface area per volume, so mass and heat transfer are fast, reactions run safely in small volumes, and conditions scale with little change from lab to pilot.

Typical uses are pharmaceutical intermediates and synthesis, fine and specialty chemicals, pesticide chemistry, nanomaterials and polymer modification, with reactions such as Michael additions, Friedel–Crafts alkylations, aldol reactions, sulfonation, nitration, diazotization and azidation.
