Polymer Processing

Polymer Processing capabilities allow us to provide samples of new polymers, develop production-scale polymer manufacturing processes, and provide comprehensive process improvement support to polymer Manufacturing. In our state-of-the-art pilot plant, we develop and implement new process technology for polymers, including on-line sensors for process monitoring and control and new process control methods. Supporting polymer characterization and statistical and modeling skills are also available on site.
