R&D team

In the field of research and development Lučební závody a.s. Kolín has a team of qualified specialists working on many topics related to Synhydrid® and its reducing properties.

We are prepared to help you with your troubles in reduction steps of your organic syntheses. For this purposes we have appropriately equipped laboratory of syntheses and also laboratory of instrumental analyses.

In synthetic laboratory we are able to study reaction mechanisms of various reduction steps in small scale with final suggestion of most suitable reaction conditions to obtain maximum yield of desired product with minimum production costs.

Everything, of course, under strict regime of secrecy!

In analytical laboratory we have available gas and liquid chromatographs, infrared spectrometer and also spectrometer of nuclear magnetic resonance which help us to analyze composition of reaction mixtures and the structure of individual reaction products, by-products and impurities in detail.

Our analytical instruments

Shimadzu HPLC Prominence LC-20

This modular HPLC system allows to analyze the composition of samples by liquid chromatography method with high detection sensitivity and analysis stability.

Shimadzu GC-2014 AF/SPL

Shimadzu GC-2014 helps to determine the composition of easily vaporizable samples by gas chromatography method. It offers great flexibility with support for both packed columns and capillary columns.

FTIR spectrometer Nicolet iS5

The FTIR spectrometer Nicolet iS5 is a small, easy-to-operate, reliable and low-maintenance infrared spectrometer intended for studying the structure of chemical compounds.

NMR spectrometer JEOL JNM-ECZ

JEOL JNM-ECZ 500 MHz is NMR spectrometer used for structural analysis of chemical substances in liquid phase. It is equipped with auto tuned 5 mm probe allowing to measure one-dimensional and multidimensional spectra of various nuclei.
