About J-KEM’s Kugelrohr Short Path Distillation System

Distillations – Sublimations – Sample Drying

Distill heat-sensitive compounds
Mildest distillation method
Programmable stirring rate and angle of rotation
10mL to 2L flask capacity
Connection for high vacuum distillations

Quickly distills or sublimates sensitive materials with minimal hold-up and loss. A Kugelrohr thin film evaporator works by continuously rotating the distillation flask to create a thin film of test material over the interior surface of the heated flask. The large surface area of the film promotes rapid volatilization under mild conditions. Once volatilized the test material is rapidly condensed in the receiving flask only inches away, which is typically submerged in a dry ice bath.
