This talk will present showcase reasons to being broad based in multiple disciplines ranging from chemical synthesis and engineering processing to even art/creativity- as it relates to the industrial application of these skill sets to create new to the world ideas, concepts, and products.  As a graduate of Augsburg College with a degree in both sciences and arts, I will convey real life situations where differing aspects of polymer science were used and were then combined with the communication and creativity skills from other scientific disciplines and skill sets. I plan to demonstrate how these kinds of wide-ranging fields can come together in industry and can result in real life materials and products for people to enjoy. A few examples will be the creation of a pure Silicone Diamino Precursor, as well as a product example of where this unique Raw material was deployed for the customer. Going from the Gram scale to the Ton scale. Then I will jump into a unique Chemical Crosslinking solution that has a wide application for both solvent based and 100% solids based processing.
