By Sarah Stone<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brian Edwards has always loved working in a lab and conducting research. As a senior scientist for Eastman\u2019s textile application development team, it\u2019s something the Wilson College of Textiles<\/a> alumnus gets to do nearly every day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI personally get a whole lot of fulfillment out of being a hands-on scientist. I like to have access to a lab, and I like to be able to perform experiments,\u201d Edwards says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His main role at Eastman is to plan and execute experiments to understand the fundamental properties of the company\u2019s Naia and Naia\u2122 Renew yarns and staple fibers. He then uses the results of his experiments to determine new uses and applications for Naia. Right now, this yarn is principally used in womenswear and home textiles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edwards says his work in the lab is made even more rewarding by the positive impact it has on the environment. 60% of Naia Renew fiber is made up of cellulose derived from sustainably-sourced wood pulp. The other 40% of Naia\u2122 Renew fiber is derived from  hard-to-recycle waste materials. Those waste materials are broken down into simple molecular building blocks that are reassembled into valuable molecules and used to create new products like Naia\u2122 Renew. Naia\u2122 has also received third-party certifications for compostability and biodegradability in a variety of settings.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSeeing how we can tackle the big waste challenges that the textile industry is facing has been really exciting,\u201d Edwards says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The passion for sustainability that guides Edward\u2019s career has its roots in his Wilson College education. He\u2019s a triple graduate of the college, earning a Bachelor of Science in Polymer and Color Chemistry<\/a> (PCC) in 2008 and a Master of Science in Textile Chemistry<\/a> in 2010 before getting his Ph.D. in fiber and polymer science<\/a> (FPS) in 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe way things have historically been done in the textile industry and the way things are moving, trying to reduce water or find safer chemistries, that\u2019s a theme that you hear throughout your undergraduate coursework,\u201d he says. \u201cThen, I had a senior research project that was related to understanding how certain  textile dyes can be broken down in the human body into molecules that can affect your DNA. Working on that project really sparked something for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Projects and research like that are what Edwards says motivated him to enter the PCC program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cApplying the theories and principles that you learn in all types of chemistry courses to solve real-world problems that are faced by an actual industry was much much more satisfying to me,\u201d he says. \u201cWhen I could learn about it through the experience of synthesizing a dye molecule, or synthesizing a polymer, or dyeing or printing a swatch of fabric, or spinning a fiber in the lab, it just made all of those theories and principles that I learned in chemistry much more tangible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edwards used his doctoral dissertation to hone his expertise in sustainability. He developed a process to apply flame-retardant chemistry to textiles that used less water and less energy than standard industry procedures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think the most important thing I learned in graduate school is how to thoughtfully apply the scientific method to answer questions and solve problems,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This lesson made him the perfect fit for his first job \u2013 a material innovation engineer for Patagonia. There, he researched technologies  that could reduce their products\u2019 environmental impacts, improve technical performance, or both. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPatagonia is one of those aspirational places for people who are wanting to work in a brand and focus on sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe way things have historically been done in the textile industry and the way things are moving, trying to reduce water or find safer chemistries, that\u2019s a theme that you hear throughout your undergraduate coursework.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, however, Edwards made the switch to Eastman because of the opportunity to diversify his understanding of sustainable materials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEastman serves so many different markets and I’ve had a lot of opportunity to learn about other products and technologies,\u201d he explains. \u201cIt\u2019s a great place to work for someone who’s passionate about chemistry and polymer science. What this company does has a really direct correlation to what I learned at the College of Textiles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brian Edwards is just one member of the Wolfpack recently named a “Future Leader<\/a>\u201c the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists<\/a>. Out of the six young professionals who earned the association\u2019s \u201cFuture Leaders Award,\u201d five have a degree from the Wilson College of Textiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
