Benchtop Reactors
ANTICO MiniReact™ is a compact laboratory reactor designed for controlled chemical synthesis at small scale.
The working principle involves batch or semi-batch processing with precise control of mixing, temperature, and reagent addition. The system typically consists of a borosilicate glass reactor vessel, agitator, condenser, temperature sensors, and feeding ports. It is used for reaction screening, process optimization, and feasibility studies. The modular setup allows integration with heating/cooling circulators and vacuum systems. Uniform mixing is achieved through a mechanically driven agitator system. It enables real-time visual monitoring of reaction behavior and phase changes. The unit supports a wide range of chemistries including organic synthesis and catalysis. It is widely used in pharmaceutical R&D, fine chemicals, and academic laboratories. ANTICO MiniReact™ plays a critical role in generating reliable data for scale-up.
