Vacuum Concentration

Array ( )
Scientific use of a centrifuge

Application OverviewVacuum concentrators use a combination of heat, vacuum and centrifugal force for the evaporation of volatile samples. The method is used for evaporation, drying, purification and especially fast concentration. It takes advantage of the fact at pressures of a … Continue reading

Vacuum Drying

Array ( )

Vacuum Drying Ovens dry product gently and without oxidation yet much faster than conventional drying at atmospheric conditions. The vapour pressure of contained solvents is reduced through application of vacuum enabling the drying process at much lower hence gentler temperatures.Our … Continue reading

Solvent Purification
