Bharat Odedra

BSc MSc PhD FRSC

I provide expert consultancy in water based and solvent based polymers, from R&D, pilot, scale up, plant process troubleshooting, polymer characterisation to business development, IP protection/disputes and licensing.

I am highly experienced in industrial emulsion, miniemulsion, and solution polymerisation (water and solvent based). I have collaborated with a large number of 乐天堂app下载 leading emulsion polymerisation industrialists and academics. I have run industrial emulsion polymerisation training in several continents, as well as visiting plants for current process troubleshooting and solving scale up issues.

I have 27 years in 乐天堂app下载 polymer industry, 19 working at Synthomer (latterly co-leading 乐天堂app下载 R&D group), and have a proven track record for bringing innovative products and technology platforms to 乐天堂app下载 marketplace.

I have acted as 乐天堂app下载 main technology translator for licensing opportunities at clients. I have also been invited industrial lecturer at Imperial College, London on 乐天堂app下载 Masters Chemical Engineering course.
