This complete set of short path distillation apparatus comes with one newly designed 24/40 vacuum jacketed distillation head, one vertical 2-L three-neck round bottom flask with 24/40 side joints and 29/42 center joint, one 3-way cow-type receiver, three 250mL round bottom flasks, three 24/40 penny-head stoppers, one 29/42 penny-head stopper, one 24/40 inlet thermometer adapter, six 24/40 joint clips, and one 29/42 join clip.
A jacketed short path distillation apparatus is a type of short path distillation system that includes an external jacket surrounding the distillation flask. This jacket is typically connected to a cooling system, such as a chiller, which helps to regulate the temperature of the distillation flask.
The purpose of the jacket is to control the rate of heating and cooling during the distillation process. By regulating the temperature of the flask, the jacketed system can help to prevent thermal stress and cracking, which can occur when the temperature changes too rapidly.
The use of a jacketed system is particularly important when working with high-boiling-point materials or materials that are prone to thermal degradation. By carefully controlling the temperature of the flask, it is possible to achieve a more precise separation of the desired compounds and reduce the risk of damaging the material.
Jacketed short path distillation apparatuses are commonly used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and cannabis industries for the extraction and purification of essential oils, terpenes, and other complex mixtures.
