An automated flow chemistry platform to decouple mixing and reaction times

React. Chem. Eng., 2020, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D0RE00129E, Communication
Robert W. Epps, Amanda A. Volk, Kameel Abdel-Latif, Milad Abolhasani
We present a flow chemistry platform that decouples precursor mixing rates from reaction time using solely off-the-shelf components. We then utilize this platform towards material-efficient studies of mass transfer-controlled synthesis of inorganic perovskite quantum dots.
