Dr. DeArmitt obtained a BSc (Hons) in chemistry with polymer science from the University of Sussex, United Kingdom. He then obtained his MPhil and PhD on the topic of conductive polymer colloids, also from the University of Sussex. A very wide range of analytical techniques were used to characterize the new polymers and colloids made.
He has over 30 years of industrial experience in plastics and formulation of plastics including additives such as fillers, reinforcements, antioxidants (stabilizers), impact modifiers and slip aids.
Dr. DeArmitt was Manager of the Polymeric Materials Group at the Institute for Surface Chemistry in Stockholm. He created multi-national, multi-client projects on the topics of polymers, mineral fillers and antioxidants. During that time, he worked with the KTH Stockholm to create new hyperbranched, high molecular weight antioxidants to provide extraction resistance and long-term performance.
He was Senior Project Manager at Electrolux (known as Frigidai...
