The available glove-boxes are systems which allow to operate under inert and controlled atmosphere (nitrogen); they are equipped with a freezer, a system to run reactions at low temperature or reflux, and a microscope to set crystals sensible to air.
Glove-boxex are used to handle products sensible to oxygen and humidity and to produce different kinds of chemicals reactants.
The fields of interest are catalysis, thin film deposition via the CVD and ALD techniques up to energetics.
