Hi, I`m looking for a lab that can test mix an Acrylic Resin with a Surfactant to reach a certain texture. Any advice ?

Thanks in Advance.

There is a polymer analysis?
Some years ago, I contacted a very good equipped laboratoty in polymers. I have analysed phenolic resins. If you like, I may give you the reference and you must contact them to ask about your requirement. The lab. is from a University and it is located in South America.

Hi, yes I believe it would be polymer/material analysis.. I acually found a sample that will give the results that I search for.  I've spoke with Chemir in regards to deformulation of the chemical and it seems quite expensive. I would like to try your reference. However, I'm only an individual so my budget is limited.. :(

below 0 degrees celcius temperature

Ethanol, a Silicon Surface Acting Agent, and an antimicrobial agent.

Is it possible when mixed with the right propellant and sprayed out of a pressurized can that Ethanol can become below 0 degrees celcius.

I would think this may be similar to the chemical makeup in Dust off, those compressed air cans. After the spray, the can becomes very cold.

Why can't you do this experiment yourself?  Mix the acrylic system up with different loadings of your surfactant, ethanol and the biol and freeze them down to different temps and observe?
Tonight I’m going to party like it’s on sale for $19.99!

I'm trying to find ways to start.. I have no chemicals or lab equipment. I have a full time job, but I'm trying to learn more about chemistry, so this isn't like a project from school or anything..  ;D
