Access Symyx experimentation and analytical measurement capability through flexible research programs that could include contract research spanning 2–3 months with a well defined project scope to a broader more collaborative program.
Symyx Research enables a comprehensive understanding of a broad experimental space to make informed decisions on:
- Which candidates yield the greatest probability for success in panel testing
- Adjusting product formulations with changing feedstock availability and increasing prices
- The need for a new formulated product with specific properties
- Develop new formulated products for hair care, oral, fabric and skin care applications using novel polymer and other material systems
- Test stability and delivery/release performance
- Develop new formulations, apply to real or proxy substrates and analyze performance through a variety of physical and chemical tests
