Product news

Chemspeed Technologies, the leading provider of high-throughput and high-output research solutions, has changed the way polyolefins and rubbers are developed. The entire suite has raised a lot of interest at the recent “International Conference on the Reaction Engineering of Polyolefins” in Ferrara and “Asian Polyolefin Workshop” in Beijing.

Chemspeed’s comprehensive polyolefin and rubber master workflow enables innovation and drives speed, quality as well as scientific systematics in an unprecedented way at each step in the development process – from catalyst synthesis via screening, optimization, scale-up to analysis and data management. The productivity gain ranges from 10 – 50+ times more per day.

Chemspeed’s enabling polyolefin and rubber R+D suite comprises the following proven modules:

ISYNTH and AUTOPLANT POSYCAT for
• Donor synthesis
• Ligand synthesis
• Organometallic (metallocence, post-metallocene) catalyst synthesis
• Supported single-site catalyst synthesis
• Ziegler-Natta catalyst synthesis

Combining Chemspeed’s proprietary overhead gravimetric dispensing of e.g. solids from submilligrams to grams and hermetically enclosed handling (no pipeting) of halogenated reagents (e.g. TiCl4) with Chemspeed’s fully automated, unique 2nd generation array synthesis reactors (ISYNTH, 8/20/100 ml array formats) and 3rd generation process reactors (AUTOPLANT, 100/250/1’000 ml), integrated in custom MBraun glove-box.

SWING SMOLEFIN for catalysts and any other reagents
• Filling, reformatting in discrete quantities
• Inert sealing
• Hermetically closed storing in chemically inert, ready-to-apply globally standardized formats

Chemspeed proprietary, paradigm shifting technology, propelling a step-change in innovation AND quality, integrated in custom MBraun glove-box.

ISYNTH and AUTOPLANT POSY for polyolefin and rubber synthesis

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Particle CharacterizationParticle characterization instruments are used to determine particle size distribution, shape, surface area, zeta potential, density and porosity of particles and materials. Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters.
