Glass / glass lined steel reaction vessels of Buchi chemReactors CR Glas / Stahl-Emaille Reaktionsgefässe der Büchi chemReaktoren CR CR reaction vessels’ designs are based on reaction vessels used in chemical production. They are built for daily use in development and production and clearly stand out from laboratory reactors in terms of robustness and performance. Compared to a conventional reaction vessel made of glass lined steel, the glass top (dome, column) allows the operator to observe the processes inside the vessel. In addition, product residues are prevented from caking onto the unheated...
