Controlled Turbulent Mixing Improves Flow Chemistry Reproducibility
To achieve highly reproducible flow chemistry scale-up the control of mixing and temperature is essential, particularly for highly exothermic or fast, mixing-dependent reactions. The expanding range of Uniqsis Glass Static Mixer (GSM) chip reactor blocks produce an efficient, turbulent mixed reagent stream for flow chemistry reactions that is not diffusion dependent.

Available in sizes from 270µl to 20 ml, the Uniqsis range of high-quality GSM chips can be used to perform reactions from -80°C to over 150°C. GSM chips up to 2 ml can be operated up to 40-bar and are available in 2-channel or 3-channel inlet configurations. Larger GSM chips of 10ml and 20 ml have a premixing channel followed by a residence domain and can operate up to 10-bar. Glass Static Mixer chips can be used as mixing modules prior to a coil reactor residence time unit, or as reactor blocks for rapid exothermic reactions.

Glass Static Mixer chip reactor blocks from Uniqsis are precision machined from inert borosilicate glass to withstand a wide temperature range and can be conveniently at ...
