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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOpuOQyJIIU

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, of electrically controlled materials, of non-Newtonian fluids ↗ Topographic surface analysis (AFM microscopy, Interferometry) ↗ Physical and mechanical testing of polymers ↗ Filler surface investigation, filler-matrix interaction ↗ Polymer compounds and compounding techniques Teaching: ↗ “Rheology of Polymer Composites” - 36h of lectures, 18h of lab and seminars, since 2016 ↗ “Introduction to Polymer Materials Science” - 40h of lectures, 12h of lab works, since 2021 ↗ “Atomic force microscopy”, 36h, practical course ↗ Supervisor of 5 Masters Students of Moscow Aviation University (MAI) ↗ Advisor one student of Moscow Technology University Other responsibility: ↗ Development of Institute's Internet resources ↗ Make video for our YouTube channel ↗ Organized annual scientific conferences. I achieved automation of the registration process and payment of the registration fee. I developed my own CRM with the conference participants and many little things like a badge generator. ↗ Writing articles, make reviews of preprints for several journals (CMCA, MKMK), and work with students/graduate students.

Technology Consultant, Self-employer, nikolaysemenov.ru 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
