Polymer-Based Additive Manufacturing Recent Developments

Jonathan E. Seppala (Ph.D., Michigan State University) is currently a chemical engineer in the Materials Science and Engineering Division (MSED) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD. Joining NIST in 2012, he has worked on projects involving polymer additive manufacturing, ballistic witness materials, rheology, dynamic mechanical analysis, neutron and x-ray scattering and imaging, and in-situ characterization of polymer processes. He received a distinguished paper award from the Adhesion Society in 2014 and has been an ACS member for 6 years.

Anthony Kotula (Ph.D., Carnegie Mellon University) is a chemical engineer in the Materials Science and Engineering Division (MSED) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD. He has worked at NIST since 2014 with a focus on in-line characterization of semicrystalline polymers in processing flows and simultaneous rheology and vibrational spectroscopy techniques. He was awarded a National Research Council Postdoctoral Fellowship (2014) and has received accolades for the development of the rheo-Raman microscope and process line Raman spectroscopy strategies for Additive Manufacturing from the World Materials Research Institute Forum (2018). He has been an ACS member for 4 years.

Chad R. Snyder (Ph.D., Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University) is currently a research chemist in the Materials Science and Engineering Division (MSED) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD. Since 1996, he has worked at NIST on projects involving semiconducting polymers, polymers at interfaces, liquid state theory, calorimetry, dielectric relaxation spectroscopy, and polymer crystallization. Snyder has been an ACS member for 26 years and has served as a Technical Programming co-chair for the ACS Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering Division since 2016. He has been awarded the U.S. Department of Commerce Gold (2007) and Bronze (2009) medals.
