Chemspeed’s Unique, Proprietary Array Synthesis Reactor Technology with Disposable Vials

Customer testimonial

“Fast catalyst optimization (selectivity and conversion) as a result of automated synthesis and screening of 2 generations of catalysts. Development time decreased by 50%!

We used to take 3 to 5years to transfer a new catalyst to business, now the company does so in one year! So basically every year one new catalyst.

… More than 20 different impregnation methods have been successfully implemented on these platforms…”

Chemspeed’s ISYNTH CATIMPRG deck modularity allows the user to execute and perform a variety of workflows in a fully automated fashion, including reaction preparation, multistep synthesis, work-up, purification, analysis and product transfer to storage.

ISYNTH Components

Disposable glass vial / reactor

Preparation of impregnation solution with heating under reflux, pH measurement and adjustment as well as density measurement and adjustment.
Incipient wetness and excessive liquid impregnation while shaking and heating in high quality (disposable) vials / reactors.
High-quality quartz reactors for direct use in calcination.
Integrated washing, filtration and drying.
Integrated pH and density measurement / adjustment.
Variety of reactors with heating, reflux, vacuum, filtration.
Efficient mixing by shaking while preserving the extrudates.

4-Needle Head

Volumetric dispensing and aspiration of liquids is done with a Multi-Channel Liquid Handling Tool (4-Needle Head), with four independent needles. The four needles can be operated simultaneously or individually. If required the tool can be equipped with needles of different inner diameters. Larger diameter needles for the handling of suspensions or liquids with higher viscosities, smaller diameter needles for handling of small volumes.

The Gravimetric for solids and powders (SDU, GDU-P)

The Gravimetric Dispensing Units (SDU and GDU-P models) are used to perform automated, gravimetrically controlled dispenses of a wide range of solids and powders in the milligram to multigram scale. The modules pick the appropriate chosen container, dispense the solids and powders, and then place the container back to its station before picking the next one. Both dispensing units include an overhead balance, and allow dispensing and simultaneous weighing of solids and powders into various vials, reactors, well-plates.
