Solutions for polymer R&D
Improve your polymerization R&D in output and quality via acceleration, standardization, digitalization.
Accelerating your existing workflow
Polymer R&D faces challenges such as the need for highly innovative, better polymers with superior performance, reducing cost, coping with bans on additives.
High reproducibility, sustainable knowledge preservation and up-/ downscaling sensitivity are key factors during these tasks.
Chemspeed provides high throughput and high output solutions which accelerate, standardize, digitize your R&D without compromise in areas such as:
- Pressure polymerization (e.g. olefins, alkylene oxides)
- Solution polymerization (e.g. acrylics)
- Controlled / living solution polymerization (e.g. NMP, RAFT, ATRP)
- Mass polymerization (e.g. carbonates)
- Graft polymerization (e.g. modified PEG)
- Dispersion polymerization (e.g. aqueous polyurethanes)
- Emulsion polymerization (e.g. nanolatexes, styrenes)
Highly innovative technologies allow mimicking virtually any polymerization process in a fully automated way. This saves precious time and increases output and quality of your lab dramatically, by using concepts designed for chemists by chemists.

High-throughput RAFT Polymerization via Automated Batch, Increment, and Continuous Flow Platforms
We report an automated strategy to conduct RAFT copolymerizations using a Chemspeed robotic platform capable of executing batch, incremental, and continuous monomer addition workflows under inert conditions. Copolymerizations of oligo(ethylene glycol) acrylate with benzyl acrylate (as a control) and fluorescein o-acrylate were conducted in toluene, THF, and DMF, with reaction progress monitored via ¹H NMR spectroscopy at defined intervals.
