Working Principle

The SS-10L stainless steel batch reactor utilizes its high-pressure and high-temperature resistance properties to facilitate chemical reactions within a sealed stainless steel vessel. Heat is provided via electric heating wires or jacket heating methods, while the integrated stirrer (mechanically or magnetically driven) ensures uniform mixing of reactants. This design allows the reactor to perform various chemical processes, including synthesis, polymerization, dissolution, and extraction, under controlled temperature and pressure conditions. Safety features like pressure relief valves and pressure gauges ensure safe operation by preventing overpressure, enhancing overall safety during experiments.
