UV-Vis Photocatalytic Glass Microreactor

The UV-Vis Photocatalytic Glass Microreactor runs photochemical reactions in continuous flow and screens new photocatalysts at lab scale. It is made of BF33 borosilicate float glass, which transmits UV-A, UV-B and visible light well (over 80% at 290–400 nm). The reaction layer sits apart from the cooling-water layer, so the coolant does not absorb the light, and the reactor surfaces act almost as mirrors to make the most of the light source.

Uses include continuous photochemical processes, high-throughput screening of photocatalysts and preparation of special pharmaceutical intermediates.
