Deformulation refers to a set of analytical procedures used to separate and identify individual components of a formulated chemical substance.

Deformulation process could be needed if:

• The consumer needs to confirm the correct constituents of the product formula
• The consumer wants to duplicate and improve the existing product
• The consumer created the novelty formula, but needs the quantitative break down, etc.

Once the product has been broken down, our lab can reformulate (recreate) the product or improve based on the required characteristics.

All deformulation work is conducted on a best effort basis and additional analytical work is often required to complete the project. Based on the final results of the deformulation, we can make a small quantity of a trial formula for the client to evaluate. These trial formulas are also made on a best effort basis but sometimes several formulas are required to develop all the desired properties.

All formulas provided to the client are the sole property of the client. We will send you our non-disclosure agreement (NDA) form before starting the project. Additionally, our laboratory can provide patent searches, feasibility determinations and patent application services.
