Research Interests

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF 3D PRINTING TECHNIQUES AND PERFORMANCE BASED ON POLYMER COMPOSITE MATERIALS AND ENGINEERING PLASTICS SUCH AS PI, PEI AND PEEK
3D Printing technology, which is considered one of the most innovative manufacturing technology in the 21st century, is expected to transform the manufacturing industry overall, as it shortens manufacturing lead time, reduces required costs, and allows printing of items with complex structures. In spite of these kinds of advantages, there is a critical need to develop 3D printable materials, especially polymers with high performance due to the inherently limited mechanical & electrical properties and functionalities of printed polymer parts. We are involved in research and development of 3D printing techniques and performance based on polymer composite materials and engineering plastics such as PI, PEI, PEEK. We always stay with a view to
·Increasing efficiency
·Conserving resources
·Optimizing time-to-market for products
·Opening up new opportunities in design and production

RESEARCH SERVICES FOR MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY RESEARCH, CUSTOM ORGANIC SYNTHESIS, SYNTHETIC PROCESS DEVELOPMENT, ANALYTICAL SERVICES, MOLECULE SOURCING AND PRODUCT MARKETING
Research services that we are involved in are all areas of medicinal chemistry research, custom organic synthesis, synthetic route optimization, synthetic process development, formulation development, analytical services, molecule sourcing services, and product marketing services. Our team includes highly qualified and talented synthetic and medicinal chemists and pharmaceutical marketing experts. We have the experience to manage the complex activities and tight timelines required for both pharmaceutical and specialty chemical projects. We are capable of providing qualified products and services with competitiveness, and offer products and service from discovery and early medicinal chemistry to multiple kilogram up to ton scale synthesis. We have been engaged in research and development of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients for both generics and new drugs as well as mononers for specialty polymers such as Colorless PI, PEEK and cotton-like Nylon.
