Work Experience

Jr. Scientist (R&D)
Since Jan 2018
Company Profile: Manufacturer of Bentonite, Bleaching Clay, refactory material and proppants.
Job Profile :
Responsible for interdisciplinary research and cross functional team work. My diversified work profile is listed below-
Bridging between clay and polymer field
Super adsorbent Polymer (bentonite additive) and polymer composite synthesis Development of hydrotalcite material to contest the Fluoride and Arsenic removal issue form drinking and/or waste water Development of polymer filler (organo clay, delaminated Kaolin, Organic modification of Kaolin) Development of Nano clay without using chemicals

Employment History And Achievements
Synthesis of super adsorbent polymer as an additive for Bentonite.
In-situ polymer nano clay composite synthesis.
Developed various functional filler for property improvement of
polymer and/or tyre based on nature of final application:-
Nano clay as nano filler for hydrophilic polymer.
Organo clay as filler for hydrophobic polymer.
Delaminated Kaolin to improve air-impermeability of tyre.
Synthetic clay as specialized filler for polymer.
Synthesized regenerable clay for arsenic and fluoride removal from drinking and/or waste water.

Project supervised
Title Key achievements
Super Adsorbent Polymer
Synthetic polymer works well as an additive for
Bentonite and improves various properties.
Optimization of polymer synthetic parameters.

Polymer composite.
Implementation of in-situ process for better interaction between filler and polymer matrix which automatically improves properties.
Various filler utilized through in-situ process.

Development of polymer filler
Organo clay
Tyre grade- Improves mechanical properties.
Paint grade- Improved viscosity and storage
stability.

Nano clay
True Nano clay (size below 85 nm, SEM analysis) prepared from raw Bentonites
Nano clay effectively improved the mechanical
properties of composite.

Delaminated Kaolin
Delamination drastically improves Flow point,
Oil adsorption, aspect ratio and surface area of
Kaolin.
Improves air impermeability of tyre inner liner.

Synthetic clay.
Successful piloting of stable, non-toxic clay.
High treatable water volume for fluoride (250 L) and arsenic (3000 L)- from 1 kg material.
Special grade filler- composition altered according to the final need.
