Macromolecules play an ever-increasing role in the products that we see, touch, and use in our daily lives. The research, development, and manufacturing behind these products require detailed characterization of the composition, structure, size, and molecular weight of these macromolecules. At HMJ, our mission is to provide hardware, expertise, and support to the polymer industry in the characterization process.
The foundation of the HMJ business is the DSV (Dilute Solution Viscometer) instrument line, which was purchased from Malvern in 2016. Some DSV users may be aware that Dr. Wei Sen Wong, our founder and CEO, actually purchased S/N 001 from Viscotek back in 1984 while working for Shell Chemical. The years since 2016 have been very exciting for HMJ and our worldwide DSV user base. HMJ has proven that we can provide top-notch sales, service, and support for the DSV technology now and well into the future. We deal directly with North American customers for sales and service. International DSV customers can reach us directly or go through their local distributors.
Significant additional offerings from HMJ include 1) a GPC/DSV sample analysis service, 2) the marketing of a group of aqueous, organic, and specialty GPC columns and 3) GPC/SEC standards. The addition of sample analysis, columns, and standards is part of a coherent strategy to help solve problems for HMJ customers in a synergistic and cost-effective manner. It is HMJ’s mission to become a one-stop DSV/GPC integrated service provider for the polymer industry. Details on the range of our products and services can be found on this website.
HMJ is located in Dickinson, TX, where we maintain lab space and warehouse space to meet our manufacturing and service requirements for our worldwide customer base. We look forward to meeting your polymer characterization needs.
