Laboratory Resources
The chemistry lab is equipped with 11 state-of-the-art fume hoods, including gas (nitrogen, argon, air, some with hydrogen) and cooling water connections, alarm units for water and hood offtake.
NMR / Parahydrogen Induced Polarization (PHIP) Equipment
• BRUKER 7 Tesla cryo magnet
• DBS INSTRUMENTS electrolytic hydrogen generator
• home-built brass U-tube for parahydrogen enrichment up to 50%
• ARSCRYO closed cycle cryostate
for parahydrogen enrichment up to 98%
Lab Instruments and Equipment
• home-built glassware high vacuum-line with ALCATEL/VACUUBRAND 3-step vacuum system (10-5 mbar) for ionic polymerisation

Safety First
• We take lab safety seriously. Here: home-built alarm-units for water supply leakage and hood offtake
In addition, we use the fully equipped EPR lab under supervision by Dariush Hinderberger.
