20l jacketed glass reactor system for laboratory synthesis

Achieve precise chemical synthesis and enhanced material recovery with this versatile reactor, designed for controlled temperature and vacuum operations. This system supports complex reactions, ensuring efficient processing and uniform mixing in batch production, ideal for laboratories aiming for high-quality yields.

Controls Reactions and Temperatures in Synthetic Processes

The Ai R20 Glass Reactor System, offered by Across International, is a versatile solution for controlled synthetic reactions, accommodating both single and dual jacketed configurations. This system excels in precision temperature regulation and vacuum operation, crucial for the chemical synthesis of APIs, biopharmaceutical compounds, and essential oil isolates. With capacities reaching 20 liters, it is ideal for batch and pilot operations across pharmaceutical, chemical, and botanical extraction industries. Integrated with adjustable stirring rates and a constant pressure feeding funnel, it ensures consistent material input. The high borosilicate glass construction provides excellent heat, cold, and corrosion resistance, while ETL and optional CE certifications ensure compliance with industry standards. Additionally, the reactor’s durable design—featuring PTFE sealing components and a stainless steel support frame—facilitates long-term use, while optional upgrades allow for tailored customization to meet specific process needs.
