We would like to introduce our "Visualization Reactor with Window." Events occurring in a supercritical state are usually inside SUS containers or piping, making them impossible to observe. However, our product enables this by forming a cell with transparent materials such as sapphire windows. This allows for direct visual observation and photography of reactions and material changes occurring in supercritical water and supercritical carbon dioxide. Additionally, by minimizing the flow path volume, we have achieved compactness, allowing it to be integrated into MOMI ultra equipment, and the flow path pattern can be customized. 【Specifications】 ■ Pressure: 30MPa (Design pressure 35MPa) ■ Fluid temperature: Room temperature to 400℃ (Design temperature 450℃) *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
