Why Choose Xi'an Bioland's Glass Reaction Systems?

Unmatched Quality & Safety Standards

Our reactors are CE, ISO, UL, SGS, ATEX, and IEC certified. Each item satisfies GMP/FDA design, material, and performance standards. Secure operation is provided by spark-free motors, lift-and-rotate safety devices, and double mechanical sealing.

Superior Chemical Compatibility

GG17 borosilicate glass resists strong acids, alkalis, and organic solvents without leaching metals. For pharmaceutical APIs and high-purity chemical synthesis, trace contaminants reduce yields.

Complete Process Visibility

The transparent vessel eliminates steel reactor "black box" issues. Real-time phase separation, colour changes, foaming, and mixing patterns are possible. Visibility greatly enhances experimental repeatability and increases R&D speed.

Extreme Temperature Precision

Our jacketed design provides perfect heat regulation from -80°C to 200°C. Utilizing vacuum systems with <0.098 MPa enables effective low-temperature crystallization and high-temperature reflux in one unit.

Modular Flexibility & Automation

Conventional ground joints fit condensers, dropping funnels, temperature sensors, and rectification columns. With your processes, your product can change. PLC integration, explosion-proof designs, and fully automated lift-and-rotate systems for industrial processes are supported.

Comprehensive Customization

We tailor vessel volumes, stirring types (anchor, paddle, turbine), heating/cooling capacities, and structural configurations to your exact specifications. Whether you need a 5L benchtop unit or a 200L pilot reactor, we deliver within 30 business days for custom orders and 5–7 days for standard models.

Working Principle

The reactor uses mechanical agitation and jacketed thermal circulation. An external chiller or heater controls oil or ethanol heat transfer fluid in the double-wall jacket to maintain exact temperatures. Homogeneous mixing without sparks is achieved by rotating the stirring shaft in the tank with PTFE mechanical seals.

A vacuum pump reduces internal pressure to decrease boiling temperatures for gentle distillation or solvent recovery at the top port. Vapours are captured and returned via side port condensers. Clear borosilicate provides constant monitoring of reaction progress, bubble formation, and phase transitions without opening the system.

Ground-glass joints allow modular connection of dropping funnels for controlled reagent addition, thermowells for precision temperature detection, and reflux columns for fractional distillation while retaining vacuum integrity.

Process Flow

  • Install the chemical glass reactor on a sturdy frame. Join jacket inlets to circulator. Ground joints connect condensers, vacuum pump, and probes.
  • Load raw ingredients through the top flange or side addition funnel. Seal all ports and check vacuum.
  • Temperature Control: Start jacket circulation. Gradually increase temperature (≤5°C/min) to prevent thermal shock. Digital controller monitoring.
  • Start the stirrer at appropriate rpm. The glass shows homogeneous mixing. If required, add reagents dropwise.
  • Vacuum Work: Vacuum or inert environment aids low-boiling solvent evaporation. Adapt pressure to process demands.
  • Vapours ascend into the condenser, liquefy, and collect in receiving flasks. Visually check distillate clarity.
  • Discharge and cool the reactor slowly. Gently release vacuum. Use bottom valve or top opening to discharge product.
  • Cleaning: Use CIP-compatible solvents. Use ultrasonic cleaning instead of mechanical scraping.

FAQ

Q1: What temperature ramp rate is safe?

Keep changes ≤5°C/min to prevent thermal shock. Borosilicate glass tolerates ΔT ≈100–120K, but gradual transitions extend vessel lifespan.

Q2: Can I use steam for heating?

No. Glass jackets are designed for circulating fluids at ≤0.5 bar. High-pressure steam risks rupture. Use hot oil circulators instead.

Q3: Is the reactor compatible with hydrofluoric acid?

No. HF etches glass immediately. Strong hot alkalis (>100°C NaOH) also degrade the silicone structure over time.

Q4: How do I fix vacuum leaks?

Check PTFE O-rings at the stirrer shaft and replace if worn. Reapply high-vacuum grease to all ground joints and tighten clamps evenly.

Q5: What's the lead time for custom orders?

Custom reactors ship in 30 business days. Standard models are ready in 5–7 days. We provide weekly progress updates with photos.

Q6: Do you offer installation and training?

Yes. We supply detailed manuals, video guides, and remote support. On-site training and FAT are available upon request.
