Product development chemist

A solvent keeps paint liquefied so that it can be applied to a surface easily. After the paint has been exposed to the air, the solvent evaporates and the paint dries. Product development chemists develop and improve products such as paints. To work in product development, they require at least one university chemistry degree. 

Product development chemists must consider human health and environmental impact when choosing between solvents. Many solvents that have been used in the past, such as benzene and carbon tetrachloride, are now known to be harmful to the health and/or the environment. 

Twenty-three international researchers from academia and industry have contributed their expertise to the book. This second edition of Liquid Detergents will continue to serve as a convenient, comprehensive and useful reference for researchers, and product development chemists and engineers, in the detergent field. 

Amphoteric surfactants are a class of chemicals whose functionality and utility to the industry is showing definite growth. As a class of surfactants, they are safe, both functional and with low irritation potentials for consumer products and, consequently, are finding increased use in personal products. The wide range of chemistries that are encompassed by this class of surfactant afford product development chemists the opportunity to tailor the performance of their products for specific applications. This is evident by the broad range of industries interested in these technologies.

The surface of the substrate, the silicone/substrate interface, and the bulk properties of silicones all play significant and influential roles that affect practical adhesion and performance of the silicone. The design of silicone adhesives, sealants, coatings, encapsulants or any products where adhesion property is needed requires the development chemist to have a thorough understanding of both silicone chemistry and adhesion phenomena.

Many academic texts are available to teach chemists the fundamental tools of their trade, but few books are designed to give future industrial research and development chemists the knowledge they need to contribute, with confidence and relevance, to the development of new environmentally benign chemical technology. This book aims to be a handbook for those chemists attempting to develop new processes and products for the twenty-first century, which meet the evermore stringent demands of a society that wants new products with improved performance, and with a lower financial and environmental price tag. 

Whilst LCA is a powerful tool, which will become increasingly useful, as it is refined and becomes more objective, its complexity and cost, and the length of time taken to carry out a full analysis make it an impractical tool to use on a day-to-day basis for research and development chemists and chemical engineers. What is really required for most practising technologists is a simple set of metrics to aid the decision-making process involved in choosing one synthetic route or product over another.

Physical Characterization of Pharmaceutical Solids is an incomparable resource for industrial and product development pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientist spectrosoopials physical, surface, and colloid chemists and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines. 

The next products developed were the thermoplastics made by vinyl polymerization. Vinyl chloride, and vinyl acetate copolymers known as Vinylite, was one of the first produced by Carbide and Carbon. It had been worked on in Europe and had also been worked on by Ostromysslenski, a chemist with the U. S. Rubber Company. The Carbide chemists realized at an early date that to get a uniform composition it was necessary to adjust the feed ratios of the two monomers to get a proper combination in the reactor to give a constant composition to the product. The next major development of a vinyl product was in the development of Lucite or Plexiglas polymers, which are clear, strong plastics. 

There has been significant advancement in the applications of NMR to the development of small-molecule pharmaceutical products. For example, advances in NMR automation (e.g., flow-injection analysis) and directly coupled methods (e.g., LC-MS-NMR analysis) have made analysis and characterization of small-molecule drugs much easier.23 25 These improvements have helped chemists to develop and characterize small-molecule combinatorial libraries and to screen for active compounds.4 6 It is likely some of these techniques can also be used in biopharmaceutical product development. 

In this brief treatise the discussion of the scale-up of chromatographic processes can not be fully covered. I will attempt to summarize a few of the general rules that most process development chemists attempt to follow to make the transition from the bench to the pilot and production scale easier and more efficient. 

An anecdote is useful at this point. During development meetings at a large skin care marketer, we asked how the company would propose to market a product if we had an ingredient that showed remarkable properties in chnical trials. All the 15 or so senior product design chemists in the room wanted to build the ingredient into a cream or a lotion. We mention this not to suggest that creams and lotions are not... 

Each method was generally developed to solve a particular problem encountered by a product development or formulation chemist. The relationships among problems, capabilities, and encapsulation methods are shown. The overview concludes with a list of reasons for encapsulation, such as prevention of oxidation, conversion of liquids to solids and detackification.
