How Our Custom Synthesis Service Works

At CMTEC Inc., one of the defining strengths of our custom polymer synthesis service is flexibility—our ability to adapt to the diverse requirements of our clients. Since we serve a wide range of industries, including electronics, healthcare, coatings, adhesives, and advanced manufacturing, our synthesis projects often involve unique and technically challenging requests.

A common question we receive from new clients is:
How does your custom synthesis service work?

To provide clarity, we’ve outlined the key ways in which we collaborate with clients to develop and supply polymers that meet their specific needs.

Types of Custom Synthesis Projects

Broadly speaking, the projects we handle fall into the following categories:

1. Ordering Existing Polymer Products

Some clients simply place orders for our ready-made polymer products listed in our catalog (see our "Products" page). These products have been repeatedly made and will be available in a short lead time.

2. Reproducing Literature-Reported Polymers

In many cases, researchers and companies identify a polymer described in scientific literature and need it synthesized for their own applications. Clients in this category typically:

• Provide us with relevant research papers or patents.

• Request that we reproduce the polymer with the same properties as reported in the literature.

• Sometimes ask for modifications to the structure, molecular weight, or functional groups to better suit their needs.

3. Scaling Up or Completing Ongoing Projects

Some clients have already developed a polymer and conducted small-scale trials but need assistance with either:

• Scaling up production while maintaining polymer properties and consistency.

• Optimizing the synthesis process to improve yield, efficiency, or cost-effectiveness.

• Completing an unfinished synthesis project, where they have some preliminary data but require expert input to refine the final product.

In such cases, clients usually provide us with:

• The existing synthesis procedure they have been using.

• Information about desired improvements or challenges they’ve faced.

Our team then works to optimize, reproduce, or scale up the polymer synthesis accordingly.

4. Developing New Polymers from Functional Requirements

Some clients don’t have a specific polymer in mind but instead approach us with a set of required properties or performance goals. In these cases, they typically:

• Describe the desired physical, chemical, or mechanical properties (e.g., biodegradability, thermal stability, solubility, etc.).

• Outline the intended application (e.g., medical coatings, electronic materials, adhesives).

• Request that we design, synthesize, and test a polymer that meets these criteria.

This type of project involves more extensive R&D, formulation, and iterative testing to develop a polymer that aligns perfectly with the client’s specifications.

Additional Considerations

Beyond synthesis itself, our clients have varying needs when it comes to technical details and documentation. Some clients:

• Only require the final polymer product for their applications.

• Request additional analytical data, characterization reports, or technical documentation alongside their order.

Regardless of the complexity of the request, we maintain a highly flexible and client-focused approach, ensuring that each project receives the attention to detail and customization it deserves.
