'Breakthrough' microwave synthesis technology has been shown to greatly increase yields in many reactions, such as in the open vessel Diels-Alder reaction
CEM says only its focused microwave synthesis systems with advanced Powermax technology give significantly better produce yields than can be achieved with microwave synthesis alone. Powermax is described as a breakthrough in microwave synthesis technology.
It stimulates direct molecular activation of the reactants, while simultaneously controlling the temperature of the reaction.
The technology has been shown to greatly increase yields in many reactions, such as in the open vessel Diels-Alder reaction.
All CEM's focused microwave synthesis systems are equipped with software that manages the Powermax capability.
The system can either run continuously, for maximum energy transfer to the reactants to produce greater yields, or intermittently for maintaining a user-defined bulk temperature setpoint for temperature-controlled reactions.
