Custom synthesis ranging
from grams to gallons
We provide our clients with access to facilities that enable proof-of-concept and development with as
little as a few grams of material all the way up to a 500 gallon pilot plant.
Compounding and
formulation science
Our clients benefit from access to several extruders including small scale benchtop laboratory
extruders such as Daca and Haake mini twin screw systems. When projects are ready for intermediate scales
reaching several kilograms, we have a process 11 for intermediate scale. When ready for
pilot and commercial scale, we offer larger scale exturders capable of 10s of kg
per hour, and have contacts that can toll beyond this scale.
Thermomechanical property
evaluation
Clients receive access to a wide variety of techniques including rheology, DMA, instron, and charpy
available we can test the mechanical and thermomechanical properties of a material.
Combined with top-quality analytical capacity we can provide exceptional insight into
structure-property relationships.
Small scale polymer processing
Our clients can hit the ground running with laboratory prototyping systems.
With access to laboratory injection molders, film lines, and filamenting systems, to name a few,
we can create prototypes that you and potential clients/investors/etc. can look at, touch, and feel.
Microscopic analysis including electron
microscopy and x-ray techniques
We know that clients often need high-end microscopy tools and we can provide these resources.
Available services include access to an excellent microscopy facility, capable of advanced
microscopic analysis of materials. High-quality light, fluorescence, and
electron microscopy are all available.
Access to a robust
professional network
We connect clients to the extensive network the PCG team has developed. If PCG isn't the right fit,
we can introduce you to organizations or individuals that can can meet your needs.
Business strategy development
We work with clients to make informed business development decisions.
Whether it's deciding what government grants to pursue, which application
space to develop next or anything inbetween, PCG can assist.
Professional writing services
We provide our clients professional support for government funding proposals, including concept development, technical writing,
and full submission services. Our experience spans SBIR/STTR, DOE, USDA, NSF, and other major federal programs.
The owners have successfully acquired millions of dollars for small businesses through programs such as SBIR and Bioproducts.
