Dr. Anjali Patil Anjali Patil (Ph.D.) is a Senior Scientist at Revlon Inc. She has been working at Revlon for the last 20 years. Her work involves synthesis and use of polymers in various aspects of cosmetic products. Anjali obtained her Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (India) in polymer chemistry and has done her post-doctoral research at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in Organic Chemistry (Dr. David Y. Curtin) and also at the Institute for Polymers and Organic Solids, University of California, Santa Barbara (Dr. Fred Wudl). She has been a member of ACS for the past 22 years. She has attended and chaired sessions at the National ACS meetings. She is a member of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists. She has published 9 scientific papers, issued 14 U.S. patents, and published 38 patent applications. She has recently written a monograph on “Nail Lacquer Technology,” which is published by the Society of Cosmetic Chemists. Her research interests are in synthesis and application of polymers. Anjali successfully organized the symposium sponsored by the PMSE division entitled ‘Polymers for Personal Care and Cosmetics” at the fall 2012 ACS national meeting.

Dr. Michael S. Ferritto Michael S. Ferritto (Ph.D.) is a Senior Development Specialist at Dow Corning Corporation. He has been working at Dow Corning for 17 years. His work involves the synthesis and application of silicone polymers with an emphasis on organofunctional silicones. Prior to his time at Dow Corning, he was employed at the Dow Chemical Company. Michael obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in organic chemistry and studied polymer synthesis and application of novel polymers. He completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Michigan Molecular Institute where he studied the synthesis of novel dendrimer polymers He has been a member of ACS for the past 30 years. He is a member of the Polymer Chemistry and Organic Chemistry Division of the ACS. He has issued 12 patents and published 7 papers. His research interest is in the synthesis of new polymers and in the application of organic chemistry to polymeric systems. Michael has co-organized (with Anjali Patil from Revlon) the symposium sponsored by the PMSE division entitled ‘Polymers for Personal Care and Cosmetics” at the fall 2012 ACS national meeting. © 2013 American Chemical Society In Polymers for Personal Care and Cosmetics; Patil, A., et al.; ACS Symposium Series; American Chemical Society: Washington, DC, 2013.
