For deformulation purposes, the analysis of polymers is crucial to ensure a solid understanding of the components and properties of your polymeric material. We can take either the polymer itself or a polymeric-based material and analyze it for deformulatory purposes, allowing us to determine every aspect of the polymeric-based system. Here, we will review the process of polymer analysis, particularly …
Polymer characterization allows manufacturers to understand and evaluate the various properties of your polymers. In doing so, we can ensure your product has all of the properties needed to succeed. But, how does polymer characterization improve your Product Development process and performance of your final formulation? In this blog, we will explain the process and how it can benefit your …

Roll coating technology is used in a wide range of applications, including batteries, energy creation, and more. While developing your roll coating solutions, it is important to be sure they meet all of your needs while also being able to scale up production rapidly. At National Polymer, our team can help you develop the roll coating technology you need and …
Many commercial polymer manufacturers do not have the capabilities needed to create polymers that meet certain specialty requirements. Some applications use relatively small quantities of specialty polymers which precludes supply by larger companies. Luckily, contract polymer synthesis may be the solution you need. These processes can provide many benefits, including meeting the needs of your specific industry. How Contract Polymer …
Hydrophobic coatings are water-resistant, meaning water beads up when it comes into contact with them. Superhydrophobic coatings take this one step further. They are even more water-resistant, so when water comes into contact with them, the droplets form a sphere and roll off of the surface with very little interaction. These coatings are sometimes lumped together into the same category …
All coatings have a different purpose, from weather protection to light damage prevention and more. No matter what the function of the coating, they always alter the surface properties of the material in order to provide beneficial properties for their application and environment. Let’s explore some of the benefits and applications of custom hydrophobic coatings and nanotechnology coatings. Types of …
Custom polymer manufacturing is used in many industries and for many products. We have the ability to start creating your polymers from scratch, or we can use deformulation and reformulation to re-create the polymers you need for your applications. This process depends on a few variables: required volume, which determines where your products will be manufactured commercially, and whether you …
UV-curable adhesives are used in many industries from medical to automotive to electronics. These adhesives can be cured instantly and are becoming increasingly popular due to their speed and ease of use. Over the years, these adhesives have undergone many innovations that have improved their use and expanded their applications. Let’s explore them. Drivers Behind UV Curable Adhesives Growth Over …
R2R coating, or roll-to-roll coating, technology has revolutionized the manufacturing industry by offering significant advantages over traditional discrete part coating methods. The R2R coating method involves continuously applying thin films, adhesives, or functional materials to a flexible substrate wound onto a roll. There are several reasons why roll-to-roll coating has become the preferred choice for many industries. Let’s explore them. …
