Werdegang
Berufserfahrung von Nikolay Semenov
Bis heute 10 Monate, seit Aug. 2023
Chief Scientific Officer (CSO)
Bpacks Lab
15 Jahre und 3 Monate, Jan. 2008 - März 2023
Senior Researcher
IAM RAS
As a senior researcher, I organize experimental research work and develop the methodology of the experiments (DoE). I lead the scientific group and determine the direction of research in my research area. I do experiments myself as well as supervise students. Scientific work: Rheology of polymers, topographic surface analysis, physical and mechanical testing of polymers, filler surface investigation, filler-matrix interaction, polymer compounds and compounding techniques, etc.
2 Jahre und 6 Monate, Aug. 2020 - Jan. 2023
Director of Innovation
BERЁZKA
I have developed a formulation of a polymer composite 100%plant raw materials. I have achieved a very rapid onset of degradation (hydrolysis) in salty water (close to the ocean water), due to the rapid absorption of moisture. This composite is biodegradable in compost, even at home compost. We developed a material for disposable cups and disposable tableware. We made an MVP and tested it on a live production facility, but the COVID slowed down our plans a bit.
3 Jahre und 5 Monate, 2018 - Mai 2021
Technology Consultant
Self-employer
I became technological consulting for small industries, to keep from losing my skills in the polymer technology fields. > I developed of a fire-resistant wood-polymer mix. > I did polymer processing tips and composition tips to improve yield or quality. > I looked for suppliers > I checked for new raw materials, and did quality control. > Participated in the launch of extrusion production > Participated in the launch of making compound
