2022 - Bryan Katzenmeyer

Senior Manager, Materials Science
Waters Corporation

Bryan Katzenmeyer has 15 years of experience specializing in mass spectrometry and separation techniques for the characterization of materials, polymers, monomers, and small molecules as well as increasing leadership roles within technical organizations. He currently oversees the Americas Materials Science business marketing segment for Waters Corporation which focuses on polymers, fine and specialty chemicals, extractables/leachables, medical device testing, cosmetics and personal care products, fuel/energy, and agrochemicals. Prior to joining Waters, Bryan was an Analytical Group Leader and Senior Scientist at Valspar (now part of Sherwin-Williams). While here he managed the liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry team focused on developing and validating analytical methodologies to characterize extractables and leachables, resins, oligomers, monomers, and other small molecules in packaging coatings for the food and beverage industries. Bryan received his Ph.D. in Polymer-Analytical Chemistry at The University of Akron working under Distinguished Professor Chrys Wesdemiotis. Here, he researched interfacing liquid chromatography and ion mobility separation with multi-dimensional mass spectrometry for the structural characterization of polymeric materials. He also obtained a M.S. in Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a B.S. in Chemistry from Penn State University.
