It is mainly applied in calcination and reduction, which are key steps in catalyst preparation and activation. Optional work tube package allow operation under vacuum or controlled atmospheres, providing flexibility for different experimental conditions. During calcination, catalysts are heated in oxidizing (Air) or inert atmospheres (N2) to remove volatile components, decompose precursor compounds, and form the desired catalytic phases. During reduction, metal oxides are converted into active metallic forms using reducing gases such as hydrogen. The furnace provides precise temperature control and uniform heating, enabling programmed heating ramps, dwell times, and cooling cycles. This makes it suitable for laboratory-scale catalyst development where accurate thermal treatment is essential for achieving the required structural and chemical properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-custom-buttons btn-list\"><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"section section wp-block-unilux-blocks-headline-text-and-image py-0\">\n    \n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"nanotrac-flex-and-sabino-zata\"\n    >\nNanotrac Flex and Sabino Zata<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper flex flex-wrap lg:-mx-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-7\/12 lg:order-2 lg:px-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-image-video-wrapper\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"Nanotrac Flex DLS analyzer and Stabino Zeta potential system side by side, with in\u2011situ probe for frequency\u2011shifted backscatter sizing and a dynamic titration cell with streaming potential and pH control for colloidal stability.\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-scaled.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/10172830\/nanotrac_flex_and_stabino_zeta-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-5\/12 lg:order-1 lg:px-32\">\n<p><strong>The Nanotrac Flex<\/strong> is a compact, high-performance dynamic light scattering (DLS) system for precise particle size analysis in the nanometer range.

It includes two specialized membrane holders: one optimized for mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) and another for thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes, supporting comprehensive testing across our research portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-custom-buttons btn-list\"><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"section section wp-block-unilux-blocks-headline-text-and-image py-0\">\n    \n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-cary-3500-compact\"\n    >\nUltraviolet-visible spectroscopy Cary 3500 Compact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper flex flex-wrap lg:-mx-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-7\/12 lg:order-2 lg:px-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-image-video-wrapper\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"Agilent Cary 3500 Compact UV\u2013Vis spectrophotometer measuring absorbance (200\u2013800 nm) for carbon-capture and hydrogen research samples\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-scaled.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/21175047\/Ultraviolet-visible-spectroscopy-Cary-3500-Compact-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-5\/12 lg:order-1 lg:px-32\">\n<p>Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) measures light absorption and reflectance in the 200-800 nm range. Molecules absorb light at specific wavelengths, causing electronic transitions. A UV-Vis spectrometer records an absorption spectrum, indicating absorbance versus wavelength. Widely used in chemistry, biology, and environmental science, it quantifies analytes, studies reaction kinetics, and assesses compound purity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-custom-buttons btn-list\"><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"section section wp-block-unilux-blocks-headline-text-and-image py-0\">\n    \n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"centrifuge-ohaus\"\n    >\nCentrifuge Ohaus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper flex flex-wrap lg:-mx-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-7\/12 lg:order-2 lg:px-32\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-image-video-wrapper\">\n    <figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"OHAUS benchtop centrifuge with digital display, fixed-angle rotor, and safety lid lock for routine laboratory sample separation\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-scaled.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/07\/20170155\/Centrifuge-ohaus-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 3\/2; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-wrapper w-full lg:w-5\/12 lg:order-1 lg:px-32\">\n<p>OHAUS benchtop centrifuges support routine for phase separation and method development.
