High-Pressure Chemistry

Leveraging Experience from Modeling to Manufacturing
API manufacturing often takes advantage of high pressure chemistry — those reactions involving a gas as a reagent such as catalytic hydrogenation. At Asymchem we’ve spent considerable time establishing a dedicated research team and building significant capacity at our two main API manufacturing sites to support this core technology. Our 300-3000L autoclaves are rated at 4-9 MPa, and are stainless steel and Hastelloy.
- Well equipped R&D facility with parallel screening equipment and bench-scale autoclaves
