COWLEY RESEARCH GROUP

Manifold

As a group, we specialize primarily in inorganic and organometallic synthesis. Most of our equipment consists of specialized glassware for handling air and moisture sensitive compounds. Chief among these is an inert gas/vacuum manifold, used with Schlenk-type flasks to carry out reactions with rigorous exclusion of air.

Hood

Our labs are also equipped with fume hoods for an added measure of protection against chemical vapors.

1-man

For the handling and transferring of compounds, especially solids, under inert gas we have a one-user glove boxe, equipped with automatic inert gas pressure regulation, recirculation and catalyst regeneration, as well as refrigeration for temperature sensitive compounds.

Stills

A network of stills provides many common solvents, air and moisture free, whenever needed.
