Specialty Compound Synthesis
The Sparx Chemical Team specializes in commercial scale synthesis of fine chemicals.
- Outsourced lab with 30 years combined experience for solving chemistry and chemical engineering challenges
- Solving challenges in formulation, custom chemical/ physical properties, scaleup, process optimization, and oil field chemical engineering
Material Specification
Cutting edge technology requires the right material for the end use case.
Antimicrobial Screening
Rapidly iterate formulation optimization with routine microbial testing
Follow ISO protocols for more samples for active loading vs target microbes
At a lower overall cost than labs just focus on microbioloty
Failure Analysis
Identification of chemical degradation products and determine root cause failure
Lab Services
Sparx Engineers combine custom synthesis with ruggedized electronics to provide robust solutions for difficult to detect analytes in complex, ‘real world’ fluids and surfaces. Chemical specialties include selective sequestration or detection by optical (UV/Vis, Fluorescence, Luminescence) or electrical (Conductivity, ReDox) signal changes.

Sparx also now offers data mining capabilities for complex data sets or nonlinear analyses employing techniques such as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Linear Discriminate Analysis (LDA) that can be deployed to find unknown correlations from observed behaviors in chemical and mechanical systems.
Further, these statistical methods may be employed for formulation optimization in the connection of chemical variables with observed performance for high value applications.
