Lab Capabilities
Airable Research Lab is equipped to research and develop new products that utilize soy-based feedstocks to solve industrial and consumer challenges. We design and develop new products based on key performance indicators provided by clients.
Our laboratory provides a range of synthesis, formulation, and analytical capabilities:
-
Synthesis capabilities include condensation and emulsion polymerization, esterification, and epoxidation reactions. The laboratory can produce multikilogram-scale samples for customer evaluation using batch reactors with varying scales.
-
Formulation capabilities address a variety of application development projects, including coatings, adhesives, sealants, cleaning products, and cosmetics. Our laboratory has mixing equipment that handles diverse viscosity and particle sizes to meet desired product performance.
-
Analytical capabilities include GC-MS, SEM, NMR, IR, Raman, and fluorescence spectroscopy.
Airable Research Lab leverages its intellectual property and utilizes other tools to accelerate the research and development process.
