«The interaction has always been very interesting since the team at SPECIFIC POLYMERS is open for scientific discussion, and it was possible to have those types of interactions among industry and academia, which makes scientific research more valuable. In particular, I am working on cationic photopolymerization of epoxy monomer and the cooperation with SPECIFIC POLYMERS was very important since they supplied me new epoxy materials obtained from bio-renewable resources. We have published two papers together, and new papers are under submission.»
Marco SANGERMANO« SPECIFIC POLYMERS is a very reliable partner in our ongoing projects. It is a pleasure to work with such a team with a strong expertise in organic and polymer chemistry, with a standpoint in between academics and industries. Our different collaborations have always been very fruitful for us, providing us in due time with the expected molecules and polymers. In SPECIFIC POLYMERS, we found a skilful team, open to discussions and complementary to our expertise. »
Anne-Françoise MINGOTAUD«The expertise of SPECIFIC POLYMERS in research and development of natural sustainable polymers is highly valuable. We really appreciate the efficiency of scientific discussions with a team totally dedicated to their job. It is really enlightening to have SPECIFIC POLYMERS as a partner for tailoring bio-based composites.»
Colette LACABANNE«I have been in contact with SPECIFIC POLYMERS for more than 10 years, for different projects related to advanced batteries. Through these years, SPECIFIC POLYMERS has provided outstanding services and dedication. Recently SP has inaugurated a line of new poly salts for polymer electrolytes that puts it at the helm of the search for advanced materials in this domain.»
Michel ARMAND«My group at the Université de Paris has been working with the company for eight years. SPECIFIC POLYMERS' assets are multiple: the ability to make the link between fundamental and industrial research, the originality of solutions proposed for new specialty polymers and reactivity to project requests are among their most valuable features. Ultimately—and on a more personal note—in addition to great professionalism, SP has also been able to establish natural and positive communications with the group I lead, cementing trust and reliability as one of their fundamental values to success.»
