EXPERIENCE
New Product Development Engineer, Titeflex Inc. Oct. 2012 - present
. Development of new low gas permeation flexible PTFE hose for
automobile and aerospace applications
Senior Product Development Chemist, Arlon Inc. Materials for Electronic
Division, Jan. 2005 - Oct. 2012
. Development of PTFE/fiber glass based composite materials for
electronic applications
The main parts of this job are formulation of PTFE dispersion with
ceramic fillers, coating on fiber glass and lamination with copper
foil to make high performance laminates.
As the principal inventor of several new products (CLTE-XT, CLTE-AT,
high TC), I took responsibilities from laboratory design, pilot
production run, all the way to final products.
Post-Doc Researcher, Virginia Commonwealth University (Advisor: Dr. Kenneth
J. Wynne) Aug. 2003 - Jan. 2005
. Processing of fluoropolymers such as PTFE, PCTFE, in supercritical
CO2. The main purpose of this project is to improve mechanical
properties of fluoropolymer such as creep resistance, crystallinity
etc. with the aid of supercritical CO2.
Visiting Scholar, University of Cincinnati (Advisor: Dr. James E.
Mark) Dec. 1997 - Sept. 1998
. Prepared and performed mechanical testing and morphology study of
pyrolytically synthesized silica /PDMS nanocomposites
Lecturer, Assistant Professor, Jiangsu Institute of Petrochemical
Technology, China Aug. 1990 - Nov. 1997
. Arrangement and coordination of the teaching and research within
physical chemistry division
. Taught classes in Physical Chemistry, Colloid & Surface Chemistry
for undergraduate students
. Research on surface modification of inorganic filler particles
(calcium carbonate, clay, silica) with various surfactants and
their applications in rubber and plastic industry
