Muhammad Umer F.

Polymer Engineer | Formulation Consultant | Prototyping Expert

🌟 PEC certified Polymer Engineer 🔬 Developed of 500+ Polymer Formulations 💼 Secured $100,000 in USA Funding for Product Development! I am a certified Polymer Engineer accredited by the Pakistan Engineering Council, offering a wealth of expertise cultivated over 5 years in the realm of research and development. For the past 2 years, I have made significant contributions to a prestigious polymer industry in Pakistan, demonstrating a commitment to excellence and innovation. - Published groundbreaking paper on jute-hemp/epoxy hybrid composites in *Journals of Natural Fibres* (April 2022) - Led a transformative 20 million PKR project on advanced electrospinning machine design - Focused on industrial application development for electrospinning technology ➤ I deal in various formulations related to the polymer industry, including hot melts, fibers, films, and sheets. ➤ In construction chemicals: tile bond, cornice adhesive, GP thinner, epoxy flooring, tile grout, and pure acrylic. ➤ In polymer masterbatches: flame retardants, flow promoters, additive packs, and pigments. ➤ In paint and coatings: water-based paints, road marking paints, oil-based paints, epoxy paints, and garden pipes. ➤ I also work with multiple other applications like cosmetics, adhesives, and polymer composites. I'm good at dealing with these topics; ➤ Polymer Processing: Machine and Mold Design, Films and Fibres Production ➤ Polymer Composite (light weigth composite material, Carbon nanotube flled composites) ➤ Polymer synthesis: Bulk, Solution, Suspension, Emulsion, and Precipitation ➤ Polymer Reaction Engineering: Addition, Condensation, Free Radical, RAFT, ATRP ➤ Polymer Chemistry: Polymer Kinetics, Reaction Balance Theories, Output Optimisation. ➤ Biopolymers: Biodegradable Packaging, Antibacterial Polymers, Bio Engg. ➤ Polymeric Membranes: RO, MF, UF, and PDMSO Membranes, Filteration Process ➤ Polymer 3D Printing: PLA, ABS, GPET Filament Formulations, Hot-Melt Formulations ➤ Polymer Additives: Masterbatches, Polymeric Product Formulations, Optimisation Research & Development Services I can assist you in designing, analysing, interpreting, and concluding the following test results: ➤ Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): TEM, FE-SEM, AFM, Optical Microscopy ➤ Other Specroscopy Techniques:  ATR-FTIR, UV Visible, EDX, XRD, XPS ➤ Chromatographic Techniques: GPC, GC-MS, HPLC ➤ Particle Analysis: Zeta Sizer, Zeta Potential, DLS ➤ Polymer Mechanics: Tensile, 3-Point Bend, Peel, Compression, Fatigue, Impact ➤ Thermal Testing: DSC, TGA, TMA, DMA ➤ Fire Retardancy: UL-94, Limiting Oxygen Index ➤ Antibacterial : Agar Test, In-vivo, In-vitroOthers : Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, ➤ Product Developments ➤ Polymer Rheology ➤ Polymer Processing ➤ Injustion molding troubleshoot ➤ Paint industry troubleshooting ➤ Rubber industry troubleshoots To move forward, the best next step would be to meet up on video to chat more about the project and see if we're a fit. Just message me below and we'll get it set up!
