Asynt Ltd Asynt specialises in providing innovative technologies for the chemical synthesis sector.

Our core aim is to provide a unique range of products and services focused on the chemistry market to make the lab safer and more environmentally friendly Asynt was formed in July 2003 with the aim to develop, supply and support new, sustainable and novel products central to the laboratory. Since inception, we have developed the DrySyn heating block range (a clean, safe alternative to oil baths and heating mantles) both reducing costs in purchasing / disposal of oil and a 35% reduction in energy consumption. We also pride ourselves in reducing laboratory water consumption using our air cooled CondenSyn units and highly effective water circulators. Our current team has over 70 years of experience in the scientific sector and work hard to help our customers find the best possible solutions for their requirements. Key product lines available include Asynt ReactoMate Controlled Lab Reactors, the DrySyn heating and cooling blocks, IKA, Julabo, Huber and Vacuubrand amongst others. With a broad range of scientific equipment and consumables ranging from bench top laboratory scale to pilot plant and beyond. Asynt’s Managing Director, Martyn Fordham, spent almost twenty years dealing with the requirements of research chemists (at the outset just custom glassblowing) before forming Asynt. For Martyn having the right staff, who are both knowledgeable and dedicated to customer support, has been the key to Asynt’s successful growth.

Who’s in Manchester today?

If you’re around the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology pop in and see Andrew Mansfield as he represents Asynt at the 26th Recent Appointees in Polymer Science (RAPS)

Guest speakers include Amy Goddard, Michael Shaver and Susan Kelleher.

Back to the lab! 🧪🎓

New term, new projects and early alarm clocks!

Thankfully, we’ve got a few things to make getting back to chemistry rather more enjoyable:

💦 CondenSyn: because running water down the drain all day is very last term.

🔥 DrySyn: bringing the heat, without bringing the oil bath.

⚡ ElectroReact: for chemists who like their research with a little more potential.

🔄 fReactor: continuous chemistry for those who want to dip their toe into flow.

💡 Lighthouse: because occasionally the answer really is to shine a light on it.

Whether you’re starting a new research project, welcoming students back into the teaching lab or finally tackling that experiment you’ve been avoiding since June, we’re ready when you are.

New term. New chemistry. Let’s see what happens. 🧪

When your chemistry needs pressure, continuous processing and serious materials compatibility, reactor design matters.

Last week, and Andrew Mansfield installed this high pressure Hastelloy fReactor CSTR at Cardiff University Chemistry for the Duncan Wass Group, where it will be used for catalysis research.

CSTRs offer an interesting route into continuous high pressure chemistry, particularly where effective mixing, controlled residence time and steady state operation are important.

We’re particularly interested to see the reaction space the Wass Group can explore with this new capability.

If you’re investigating high pressure catalysis in continuous flow, we’d love to talk.

What if CO₂ wasn’t simply an emission, but a valuable chemical feedstock?

Omar Mohammad and colleagues Aston University have used high pressure carboxylation to convert CO₂ and biomass derived phenolics into valuable hydroxybenzoic acids, achieving yields of up to 97.9%.

The work offers an exciting glimpse at how carbon capture, sustainable chemistry and advanced reaction engineering could combine to create genuinely useful products.

‼️Don’t panic‼️

If you missed our webinar last week and still wondering how mixing can affect your reactions, head over to Asynt’s YouTube channel where you’ll find a recording of Marc Reid ( Strathclyde Chemistry and Kineticolor) and Andrew Mansfield giving you the lowdown on efficient mixing and how video analysis software can aid process monitoring.

UV got to be kidding me!

I spy with my little eye something beginning with “F”

If you want to learn more about the fabulous benefits of the fReactor and PhotoFlow, check out Asynt’s webinar featuring Nikil Kapur, John Blacker and Steve Marsden from the University of Leeds.
