Phase Transfer Catalysts

Nova International is a reliable manufacturer and exporter of Phase Transfer Catalysts (PTC) with a history of providing high-quality chemical compounds around the world. The use of Phase Transfer Catalysts is essential in the presence of reactants located in separate phases, or heterogeneous reactions. As opposed to other phase transfer catalysts, they are unique in that they dissolve in organic and aqueous phases and are effective for multiple phase transfer catalysis applications.

Phase Transfer catalysts bridge two immiscible phases, they carry anions of inorganic salts into organic solvents and back to the aqueous phase again. The common Phase Transfer Catalysts include quaternary ammonium salts, phosphonium compounds and crown ethers, namely to improve the rate of overall reaction and yield when converting from reactants to a desirable product.

Nova International provides a reliable supply of Phase Transfer Catalysts to industry worldwide, based on our experience, manufacturing capabilities, and quality standards.
