Vacuum sources for rotary evaporators

A rotary evaporator offers a multitude of advantages, which make this technology the most important tool within solvent evaporation on a laboratory and pilot scale. Gentle and efficient evaporation, which is caused, among other things, by the uniform distribution of the substance mixture on the inner wall of the evaporator flask, can take place with a low supply of heat thanks to a vacuum. It is the main argument that speaks in favor of this proven technology.
