Nitin V. Patil

Biography

Dr. Patil received his PhD in Chemistry from the OSU, Stillwater, Oklahoma, in 2013 December. His doctoral thesis was focused on, Self-assembled polymer nanocomposites. He had completed the Bachelor of Polymer Engineering and Technology at University Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai, and Maharashtra, India in 2006. Before joining PhD program, He worked as a Polymer Technologist at Asian Paints Ltd, Mumbai. At Asian Paints, my research project directed on, achieving high solids alkyd resins for coatings. After the doctoral program, he moved to UMASS, Amherst for postdoctoral studies in Polymer Science and Engineering Department. His postdoctoral research focused on Understanding the molecular dynamics of phase mixed polymers such as PUU using solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. Currently, working as a senior chemist at Reichhold LLC2 in the coatings division. In summary, He have gained an experience in polymer synthesis for coatings and composites, polymer characterization, and ssNMR throughout his career.
