Chemical & Materials Science
The chemical and materials sciences industry is one in which the standard that new patents are held to is very high. Claims need to be novel and unobvious. Your specification has to be enabling and you need many examples. Our experience patenting thousands of chemical formulations and materials helps us get your patent filed efficiently and completely. In an industry where breakthroughs can create a race to the patent office, our experience can be highly valuable.
Working With You in the Experimental Phases
When an inventor has a good idea of a formulation or material, you may need time to come up with the appropriate experimental results. We can file a provisional application and give you time to work on experimentation. We work with you during this process and keep you up to date on the changing patent landscape. As experiments are performed and your material or chemical formulation changes, we’re there to talk about the implications of these changes to your patent and help you understand efficient and cost-effective choices.
Our Expertise
Many of our patents attorneys and agents have their masters and/or PhD degrees spanning the fields of chemistry, molecular biology, molecular biophysics, organic chemistry, genetics and other biotechnology fields. They have worked on products and processes including cosmetics, soaps and shampoos; materials science-engineering and testing; and process manufacturing.
