Whether working with polymers, perfumes, amines, or esters, fine and specialty chemical companies face similar challenges, despite the very different compounds with which they’re working. Feedstock and energy costs are high. Environmental regulations create new restrictions. Competition demands diversification. Accelrys software provides predictive science and process improvement capabilities that let you overcome these challenges, saving you time and money.
Design high performance polymers through the exploration of component compatibility and the prediction of mesostructures and properties
Increase the efficacy of catalysts used in areas such as polymerization, epoxidataion, and hydrocarbon cracking by predicting kinetic and thermodynamic properties, fine tuning activity and specificity, and exploring alternative synthesis pathways
Develop better performing coatings by predicting whether they will adhere well to surfaces, remain stable over time, and protect from corrosion, scratching, UF and aging
Enhance the color and stability of pigments and dyes by exploring the impact of UV spectra and crystal morphology, studying the effect of additives, simulating host-dye compatibility, and predicting the reactivity of fragment-molecule-based dyes
Qualify particle dispersions easily with imaging software that automates analysis and reporting, providing direct statistical measures
Save time automating data gathering, integration, analysis, and reporting
Improve decision making with real-time reporting dashboards that provide centralized access to detailed experiment results and project status updates
Reduce R&D support costs by integrating disconnected software, databases, instruments, and LIMS systems in a plug-and-play environment
Improve efficiency and collaboration by moving paper-based documentation to electronic workflows where scientific know-how is accessible, searchable and reusable
Get unique answers to your chemical sourcing, synthetic methodology, and bioactivity questions with a comprehensive collection of databases with flexible access options
