Chemical Synthesis

Draft chamber for synthetic experiments

We perform the precise material design, based on the chemical synthesis, such as radical polymerization using reactive monomers and partial modification of polymers by carboxylic acid.

Reactor at low temperature by cooling

Evaporator

Centrifuge

Dispersion Processing

Bead mill equipment

We intent to make the material design to reach individual dispersion of carbon nanotube (CNT) having the controlled optimal length by optimizing treatment time.

Ultrasonic dispersion equipment

Ultrasonic bath

Heating equipment by micro wave

Dispersion Evaluation

Digital Optical Microscope

We perform the material design through observation about dispersion state, aggregation degree, particle size, fiber length, which are detectable down to 1 micron level.

Polarized optical microscope

Neutralization titration equipment

Viscosity measurement

Mixing

Melt mixing of resins at small quantities

We can make composites by melt mixing with optimizing rotational speed and time at high temperature up to 400 deg C.
