Audrey Van Dam

Assisted in developing an internet database of molecular information gathered from molecular calculations for internal company use with the goal of employees utilizing the information to help design new improved products in reduced amount of time. Summarized patents and helped create a website for the database to be hosted on. Utilized molecular modeling and computational chemistry tools to compute Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships (QSAR) models, polymer chemistry models, solubility parameter models, and surface and interfacial energy models to calculate work of adhesion. Helped optimize and streamline initial development and reformulations of various projects in the Corporate Research Materials Laboratories (CRML) as well as other divisions throughout the company.
