Laboratory reactors are systems for improving and reproducing chemical reaction, dispersion, homogenization and mixing processes on a laboratory scale. Thanks to their flexible design, they can be individually configured and thus optimally adapted to the respective field of application. Schmizo laboratory reactors are made of high-quality borosilicate glass. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    A laboratory reactor is a scaled-down stirred tank reactor. It offers the same basic functions as a chemical reactor used for production purposes, but is mainly used in laboratories in the field of research and development.<\/span><\/p>

    Modern laboratory reactor systems are usually partially or fully automated to allow continuous monitoring and thus unattended overnight operation. They are usually installed in a fume hood to prevent the accumulation of explosive gas mixtures in the room air and to protect laboratory personnel from any toxic substances that may be released.<\/span><\/p>

    In contrast to production systems, glass reactors are preferred in the laboratory. The borosilicate glass used for this purpose is characterized by a low coefficient of thermal expansion and is therefore insensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations. Glass is also extremely resistant to acids, alkalis and high temperatures. At the same time, it offers a clear view of the processes taking place in the reactor at all times.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
