Vigreux column in a laboratory setup. A laboratory fractionating column is a piece of glassware used to separate vaporized mixtures of liquid compounds with close volatility. Most commonly used is either a Vigreux column or a straight column packed with glass beads or metal pieces such as Raschig rings.

A Vigreux column has the least surface area, making it the least capable of separating close-boiling components. And yet with the lowest surface area, it can have the highest recovery, making it the optimal choice if a separation is not particularly difficult.

A fractionating column essentially allows for many successive distillations to take place at once, without dismantling the apparatus. A fractionating column contains indentations (a Vigreux column, Figure 5.37) or a packing material with lots of surface area.

Ideally both liquid and gas should be seen in the fractionating column, as the sample needs to undergo many vaporization-condensation events (Figures 5.44 c+d). Droplets of liquid should be seen on the surfaces of the packing material, but there should never by a large pool of liquid.

2018年3月3日 · A Vigreux column (or Vigreux condenser) is a type of fractionating column widely used in chemistry, due to its simplicity. The Vigreux column consists of a glass tube with ground glass joints at its ends. The tube contains an abundance of downward-pointing indentations, which dramatically increase the surface area per unit length of the condenser.

A Vigreux column (also called a fractionating columns or fractional columns), is a piece of lab glass ware that is designed to utilize the heat from your boiling system to create multiple distillations within its length, separating out fractions of mixtures based on volatility.

Vigreux fractionating columns use a combination of horizontal and angled indentations to significantly increase the surface area of the column to increase its efficiency.

2022年7月27日 · A fractionating column consists of a long tube, usually with male and female ground glass at both ends. Inside the tube, there are usually elements that increase the surface area for better contact between gas and liquid phase. In some types they may take the shape of glass spurs (known as trays or plates). Types Vigreux column

tubular polyethylene foam for insulating fractionating columns comes from distillation experiments employing a glass Vigreux column (standard taper (19/22), 180 mm column length), which did not have the air-jacket of the Liebig column. In three different experiments a 50% (v/v) methanol and 1-propanol mixture was separated by
