The X-Cube™ is a state of the art flow reactor for safe, fast, and efficient catalyst or reaction screening with or without gases.
Following on from the award winning H-Cube®, the X-Cube™ allows catalysts or reactions to be screened in a flow manner with reagent gases, combining the use of temperatures and pressures up to 200°C (392°F) and 150 bar (2176 psi) respectively and catalyst/reagent cartridge system (CatCart®). Gases can be utilized up to a maximum of 100 bar (1450 psi).

The X-Cube™ is ideal for those chemists working in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical, chemical or petrochemical catalyst and reaction screening divisions where time and resources are limited.
Catalyst performance can be discovered in minutes with only minimal amounts of reagents and catalysts used.
The CatCart Packer™, also available through ThalesNano Inc., allows the user to screen their own catalysts on the X-Cube™. A range of ThalesNano’s catalysts or reagents may also be used on the system.
