Abstract: The present invention relates to a reaction platform, which comprises: a machine body with a bottom plate for placing non-porous substrates; and a coater module configured on the top of the machine body and capable of maintaining a preset of a predetermined height for moving along the surface of non-porous substrate, wherein the coater module has one or more slits, and a target liquid can be directly injected or sucking in from the outside of the coater module through the slit, and spreading the target liquid onto a surface of the non-porous substrate while moving along the non-porous substrate; wherein the surface of the non-porous substrate has a target to be coated. The reaction platform of the present invention can not only save time, labor and cost, but also have accurate and reproducible experimental results, showing better results than traditional methods.
