Mixing Reactor
A Mixing Reactor made of borosilicate glass is a compact, high visibility system for carrying out controlled chemical reactions with efficient agitation, heating, and cooling in laboratory, kilo lab, and pilot plant environments.
At its core is a cylindrical borosilicate 3.3 reactor vessel, configured as single wall or jacketed, which offers universal corrosion resistance, smooth non contaminating surfaces, and full visual monitoring of reaction progress, phase changes, and crystallisation.
The vessel is mounted on a rigid support or mobile trolley and closed with a multi neck glass lid that accommodates an overhead stirrer, feed and vent nozzles, temperature probes, pressure/vacuum connections, and optional condensers or receivers for reflux and distillation work.
Jacketed designs circulate heat transfer fluid around the vessel, enabling rapid heating and cooling across a broad operating window, typically from cryogenic temperatures up to around 200 °C under full vacuum to slight overpressure.
Variable speed agitation, often with PTFE coated or glass impellers and baffle systems, delivers uniform mixing, good suspension of solids, and reliable mass and heat transfer for both low viscosity and more viscous formulations.
Typical operations include synthesis, dissolution, precipitation, crystallisation, extraction, and solvent exchange, with the same reactor easily reconfigured—by changing condensers, receivers, or column sections—for reaction distillation or reflux studies.
Mixing Reactors in borosilicate glass are widely used in pharmaceutical R&D, fine chemicals, specialty polymers, and academic laboratories, where cleanability, inert product contact, and the ability to directly see the process are crucial for safe, efficient scale up.
- Typical operation involves charging raw materials through the top nozzles, mixing with variable speed agitation, and using the jacket to apply controlled heating or cooling cycles for reactions such as synthesis, crystallisation, dissolution, and extraction.
- Optional condensers and receivers allow the same unit to perform reflux, solvent recovery, and simple distillation steps, reducing transfers and improving process safety and productivity.
- The unit is built of a cylindrical borosilicate 3.3 glass vessel, available in single or double jacketed design for precise temperature control across a wide range, from deep cooling to elevated reaction temperatures.
- A multi neck glass lid accommodates an overhead stirrer, feed and vent nozzles, temperature probe, and optional condenser or reflux line, while a bottom drain valve enables complete, contamination free discharge of the batch.
- The reactor is mounted on a corrosion resistant support frame or movable trolley, with PTFE seals and gaskets ensuring excellent chemical inertness, leak tight operation under vacuum or slight pressure, and simple cleaning between campaigns.
- Mixing Reactor Units in borosilicate glass are widely used in pharmaceutical and fine chemical development for route screening, scale up studies, and small batch production where corrosion resistance, low contamination risk, and visual observation of the process are critical.
- They are equally suited for specialty chemicals, biotechnology media preparation, and academic research, offering a flexible platform for any operation that demands accurate mixing, precise temperature control, and complete transparency of the reaction environment.
