- Created a stretch ratio calculator to find the optimal preform to be used for blow molded PET bottles. Ratios accounted for included hoop stretching, biaxial stretching, and planar stretching. This allowed the company to more accurately choose and correct for non-optimal preform use. - Conducted various performance testing on plastic containers such as tensile testing, environmental stress cracking resistance, Bruceton drop testing, spectrophotometer testing, FTIR analysis - Created a stretch ratio calculator to find the optimal preform to be used for blow molded PET bottles.

- Conducted various performance testing on plastic containers such as tensile testing, environmental stress cracking resistance, Bruceton drop testing, spectrophotometer testing, FTIR analysis - Created a dashboard compiling annualized percent weight loss data collected daily to determine the best chemical barrier and positioning of the barrier to prevent bottle paneling. This allowed for clearer understanding of the surface area to volume ratio impact of the bottle performance at elevated temperatures. Show less
