Microwave Synthesis Labstation

Milestone’s state-of-the-art MicroSYNTH is the most innovative microwave synthesis platform available on the market.

Main Advantages

• Enhanced microwave field homogeneity
• Advanced reaction control
• High safety
• Unmatched application flexibility

The MicroSYNTH offers unmatched flexibility of operation; it allows operations in both open and closed vessels and chemical reactions can be optimized in small volumes and then taken to larger scale within the same microwave unit. The MicroSYNTH offers such excellent scalability because of its multimode design and its inherent safety.

Field homogeneity
The microwave field is homogeneously diffused throughout the entire cavity by a specifically designed mode stirrer. As a result, chemists can achieve uniform results in a wide range of vessels and can process multiple reactions simultaneously or explore large reaction volumes. Precise reaction monitoring and control, with an intuitive, easy-to-use software interface, provide exacting reproducibility and complete documentation.

Unique pressure responsive door
The MicroSYNTH’s door features an innovative opening and self resealing mechanism.  The door is mounted on spring-loaded steel bars and in case of a udden over-pressurization of the cavity, it opens slightly for immediate and safe release of the overpressure. Microwave power is instantaneously cut-off. Immediately afterward, the door is pulled back by the springs resealing the cavity.

Software-controlled magnetic stirrer
A magnetic stirrer is built-in in the MicroSYNTH system. It is designed to ensure vigorous stirring of the solutions in all vessels, independently on their position in the cavity, thus assuring reliable and consistent results.
