Laboratory services

Services that move your formulation forward

Product analysis, product development, and quality control under one roof at PCC Chemax – built to take a formulation from a bench-scale question to a full-scale production answer. Our labs sit on-site in Piedmont, South Carolina, next to the plant that will run your product – not on another continent, not on another team’s calendar. Whether you’re testing a first sample or scaling up your tenth batch, the same team stays with you at every stage

Precision instrumentation

FTIR, GC, and HPLC deliver accurate, fast data on every sample - not estimates

Bench to batch, on-site

Our Analytical Labs document reaction conditions and provide scale-up batch quantities right here in Piedmont, before full production

Full quality control

Molecular weight, Karl Fischer moisture, acid/alkali/amine values, Gardner and APHA color - all in-house, all in South Carolina

A local team, not a call center

US-based chemists who answer the phone, walk the bench with you, and stick with your project from sample to scale-up

One R&D facility, three areas of focus - built around you

The PCC Chemax R&D facility is organized around three core functions: product analysis, product research and development, and quality control. Precision instrumentation – including FTIR, GC, and HPLC – supports both new product development and ongoing production quality, all from our facility in Piedmont, South Carolina. We work with companies at every stage of growth – from a first sample run to a formulator scaling into full production – and the same on-site team stays involved the whole way through, not handed off between departments or time zones. Below, explore the four specialized labs that put this capability to work for your application.

Local Presence On-site in Piedmont, SC - our labs sit next to the plant, not on another continent. It's a team you can call, visit, and get a straight answer from. Continuous Partnership One team, start to scale - the same chemists follow your project from first sample to full production Integrated Capabilities Four specialties, one roof - analytical, surfactant, metalworking, and polymer additives chemistry under one team
