The Quickfit Microscale Chemistry Kit is perfect for experiments with milligram quantities of reagent. It features many products currently offered in standard size Quickfit sets but on a much smaller scale. Most standard organic chemistry techniques may be performed using the Microscale Kit. The kit provides significant benefits:
Cheaper
By reducing the scale of organic reactions you automatically reduce the cost of everything involved.
Safer
Using smaller amounts of organic reagents and chemicals makes handling safer. The kit is designed to be used with hot plates and a sandbath, with no bunsen burners present - eliminating the risk of igniting highly flammable liquids.
Quicker
Can be safely and securely assembled much quicker than the standard kits, saving valuable time. Boiling and cooling times are also vastly reduced. The screwthread connector system also eliminates the need for grease/lubricant to be applied to the Quickfit joint resulting in contamination free reactions. The efficient methods of connection saves on space, and with no need for clamps the danger of glassware becoming loose during experiments is greatly reduced.
Versatile
Many assemblies can be constructed from the glassware including reflux, distillation, moisture sensitive reactions and fractional distillation. Complete with a range of reaction and collecting vessels the Quickfit Microscale Kit provides a versatile approach to standard laboratory procedures.
Easy to Assemble
All components use a combination of standard Quickfit ground glass joints together with screwthread couplings, sealing 'O' rings and plastic screw caps.
