Synthesis: Turning Molecules Into Commercial Success
Developing a molecule in a laboratory is one thing. Building a process that works safely, consistently, and economically at industrial scale is another. At Navin Fluorine, every synthetic route we develop is evaluated not just for chemical feasibility but for what it will take to manufacture reliably in the real world. Our synthesis capabilities span multiple chemistry types, reaction conditions, and industrial sectors, making us a versatile partner from early-stage development through to full commercial manufacturing.
What We Do
- Evaluate multiple synthetic routes (literature + practical feasibility)
- Select optimal routes based on safety, cost, and scalability
- Optimise using structured experiments (DOE)
- Develop impurities control and in-built quality strategy
- Validate through reproducible multi-batch execution
By Sector
Our process development capabilities are applied across four sectors, each with distinct chemistry demands, regulatory expectations, and scale-up challenges.
Agro & Specialty Chemicals
What we do: Process development and scale-up of intermediates and active ingredients.
Where we add value: Cost reduction for high-volume molecules, impurities control for regulatory compliance, and robust processes for multi-batch reproducibility.
Pharmaceuticals
What we do: Development of fluorinated and complex intermediates aligned with regulatory expectations.
Where we add value: Route selection focused on manufacturability, tight impurity control strategies, and traceable and retrievable documentation practices.
Refrigerants & Inorganic Fluorides
What we do: Development of vapour-phase and high-temperature fluorination processes up to 1000°C, low-GWP refrigerants, and inorganic fluorides.
Where we add value: Environmentally friendly refrigerants, unique fluorination technology, and handling of corrosive chemistries under extreme conditions.
Advanced Materials & Electronic Chemicals
What we do: High-purity fluorochemicals for semiconductors, EV batteries, data centre cooling, and specialty fluoropolymer additives.
Where we add value: Ultra-high purity (ppm/ppb level) chemicals development and manufacturing (SEMI-Compliance), advanced purification technologies, and consistent batch quality.
