Abstract

In a 8-μL multichambered microreactor (the photo shows the components) material libraries can be produced in a simple manner through combinatorial hydrothermal synthesis. In a model experiment the synthesis of the zeolite TS-1 has been varied combinatorially. The resulting library is characterized directly by automated microdiffraction.
