Earlier this month, T,C&A Lab, Alfa Chemistry’s testing branch, announced plans to provide automotive material testing  service for automakers worldwide in the hope of enhancing the safety of vehicles for manufacturers and drivers. The testing range covers: varieties of steel plates, light metal materials such as aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy, and titanium alloy, composites such as glass fiber reinforced materials (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforced materials (CFRP), non-metallic materials such as glass, plastic, rubber, leather, artificial leather and fiber, coating materials, interior materials, adhesives, and many more. The quality of automotive materials and parts is a prerequisite for the success of vehicle design and production. “Quite a number of initiatives have been launched by automotive   manufacturers during the past ten years for the purpose of reducing weight, improving fuel economy, and enhancing performance. However, no matter what measures they adopt, mat...

Alfa Chemistry Catalysts, a key player in the chemical industry, recently stated that a dozen robust condensation organocatalysts   are now readily obtainable for researchers at home and abroad after intensive optimization work completed earlier this month. Organocatalysts are destined to catalyze a variety of reactions, such as activation reactions, oxidation reactions, carbonyl reduction reactions ,   and oxo synthesis reactions. An organocatalyst capable of catalyzing a n   organic condensation reaction is name d the condensation organocatalyst. " With the addition and elimination steps in sequence , c ondensation reactions are a common approach to synthesi z ing many chemical materials .   For instance, the condensation reactions between the hydroxyl groups or amines with carboxylic acids or derivatives are frequently applied to synthesizing   polymers , which   yield polyesters and polyamides, respectively, "   sa id   one of the senior scien...

Following varieties of certified reference materials such as environmental standards, food & beverage standards, forensic and veterinary standards, life sciences standards, petrochemical standards, and pharmaceutical and drug standards, earlier  this month, Alfa Chemistry commenced the supply of clinical standards  for customers worldwide to support clinical laboratory use. Chromatography is a laboratory technique to separate mixtures into single components. When conducting chromatography experiments, different analytical reagents are used depending on the various occasions. “For a clinical chemistry laboratory, ultra-pure chemical standards and reagents are appropriately prepared, handled, and ultimately used in the hope of bringing the clinical research to a new level of precision and accuracy. These chemicals are referred to as clinical standards,” said one senior scientist from Alfa Chemistry. “As for now, clinical laboratories have a diversity of clinical reagents, an...

Petroleum products such as transportation fuels and fuel oils are in nearly everything we use. To ensure their integrity, Alfa Chemistry 's testing branch recently released the   petroleum product testing  service, analyzing the viscosity, flash point, density, pour point, CCR, and many other quality parameters for a wide range of petroleum products, including: crude oil, fuel oil, lubricating oil/grease, paraffin wax, asphalt, petroleum coke, etc. In almost all petroleum product testing scenarios, the following items and procedures are performed: l  Heavy Metal l  Physical and Chemical Analysis l  Content Analysis l  Forbidden Substance Testing l  Composition Analysis l  Thermal Performance "Years of experience in the analytical field enables us to choose the most appropriate testing methods to conduct professional customized analysis and standard technical procedures, allowing us to determine the quality of petroleum products and possible change...

E xtensively existing  in nature , h eterocyclic organic compounds are of paramount  importance in medicinal chemistry , the discovery of novel drugs  in particular. Fully aware of the market demand for such chemicals, Alfa Chemistry recently announced the launch of t hiophenes , a type of h eterocyclic   compound  comprehensively ranged for scientists and researchers worldwide dedicated to exploring the v ersatile synthetic applicability and biological activity  of thiophenes. Consisting of a planar five-membered ring and with the mo lecular formula of C 4 H 4 S , t hiophenes   are commonly  found in abundant  biologically active compounds.  Together with their substituted derivatives , t hiophenes  exhibit interesting applications in planning, organiz ing , and implementing new drug discovery approaches . " Having been reported to possess a wide range of   antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, an...

Alfa Chemistry , a long-term  partner for many pharmaceutical companies, universities, and research institutions, recently announced to offer donepezil , a synthetic  active pharmaceutical ingredient ( API ) that can be  used in pharmaceutical preparation  for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease . API refers to the biologically active component of a drug product. In recent decades, the great importance of APIs has been  increasingly emphasized within the pharmaceutical industry, and vast research has   been  carried out from every possible angle, trying to maximize the number of  effective formulat ions . " The  drug manufacturing sector has expand ed  dramatically over the past years , hence ,   the demand for APIs increases accordingly . As a chemical supplier trusted by a large number of customers ,  we ' ve made the decision to provid e  a series of high-quality synthetic APIs at  the most reasonable price s, " s...
