Abstract

Summary: Emerging from the field of biochemistry and pharmaceutical research, combinatorial and high‐throughput synthesis and screening methodologies are rapidly being adopted in polymer and materials research. Alternative solutions to cost intensive custom‐made synthetic robot systems have become commercially available and further accelerate this field of research not just in industry, but also in an academic environment. High‐throughput analysis, materials characterization, and testing (surface energy, hardness, wettability, crystallinity etc.) are key techniques and require suitable instrumentation. Here we present a short overview of recent developments of robotic synthesizers and analytical equipment extending the review from January 2003.
