Description
There is a complete range of magnetic stirrers to handle various quantities, either with or without heating capabilities. Magnetic stirrers may be used with open or closed vessels and are especially convenient in small scale synthesis. The rotating field may be created either by a rotating magnet or a set of stationary electromagnets that are mounted beneath the stirrers surface. Advantages over traditional overhead motorized stirrers come from the ability to completely isolate the reaction medium from the environment, ease of setup and operation, and extremely simple cleanup after the reaction.
