Short path distillation is a process or technique in which the distillate element travel a short distance and get distilled, basically a few centimeters have been travelled and it is done with a reduced pressure. If you want a classic example, it can be mentioned that the distillation gets involved to the distillate travelling from on glass bulb to the other. Here, there is no condenser with the separation of two chambers. This technique is often used when the sample compound is unstable at a high temperature or need to get purification of small amount of compound. For this reason, short path distillation equipment is sometimes so much essential in terms of essentiality where the fractional distillation is not meaningful. https://xtractordepot.com/products/e-vigoreux-spd-1-custom-short-path-distillation-head
