A customer required identification and quantification of approximately ten unknown impurities present in their product. To address this, AVN developed and implemented a GC/MS analytical method, successfully conducting the necessary analyses. As additional product samples were submitted, AVN continued to provide responsive support, consistently delivering results with rapid turnaround times. – For additional information, contact… Read More

The objective of this project was to synthesize a unique polymer through a tailored reaction involving specialty monomers. Polymerization was conducted under controlled conditions using a radical initiator, and the resulting materials were collected and evaluated for their performance characteristics. – For additional information, contact questions@AVNcorp.com… Read More

The synthetic pathway to the target product comprised several key steps: epoxidation using hydrogen peroxide, ethoxylation via reaction with ethylene oxide, and catalytic hydrogenation under elevated pressure. AVN assembled the necessary equipment and developed safety protocols to execute each stage effectively, successfully demonstrating the complete process at a large laboratory… Read More

A new process currently in development incorporates a reactive distillation concept aimed at dramatically enhancing both operability and cost-effectiveness. To validate the underlying assumptions, a demonstration was essential. AVN initiated laboratory experiments to collect preliminary data and used advanced process simulation tools to fine-tune the distillation column design, optimizing it… Read More

A company sought to assess the effectiveness of novel materials for removing carbon dioxide from mixed gas streams. To facilitate this, AVN developed a screening unit for single-pass evaluation of candidate materials, supported by precise analytical techniques to ensure accurate performance measurements. Initial testing yielded valuable data on capacity and… Read More
