Early life and education

Born in Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria, Olabisi had his secondary school education at Ibadan Boys' High School Oyo State and proceeded to Government College, Ibadan, where he completed his advanced high school education in 1964. He was a 1965 recipient of a scholarship award from the African Scholarship Program of American Universities (ASPAU) administered by Africa-America Institute (AAI), to study chemical engineering at Purdue University, Indiana. [1] In 1969, he graduated with two degrees: one in chemical engineering and the other in industrial management. He was the recipient of The John Clarence Lottes Memorial Award as the best senior student on the basis of scholastic ability in chemical engineering [10] and his senior project was published. [6]

Olabisi proceeded to the University of California, Berkeley where he earned MS degree in chemical engineering in 1971 with a thesis entitled "Secondary and Primary Normal Stresses, Hole Error, and Reservoir Edge Effects in Cone-and-Plate Flow of Polymer Solutions", whose results were published in an article [11] with the same title. He furthered his studies and earned a PhD degree in macromolecular science and engineering at Case-Western Reserve University in 1973, with a dissertation entitled Pressure-volume-temperature properties of amorphous and crystallizable polymers and oligomers (which is cited in an associated journal article) [12] under the tutelage of Robert Simha. [13] In 1980, he earned an MS degree in engineering management at the New Jersey Institute of Technology through a part-time self-development program.

Career

Olabisi received a PhD degree just prior to the 1973 oil crisis which dramatically drove up the price of crude oil, petrochemicals, polymer, and plastics. An immediate plastics industry response to the crisis was to focus on plastics material conservation. There arose the need for plastics processes to employ less than a full density of plastics material in producing light-weight automotive and other plastics material articles having structural properties matching or exceeding those of solid (full density) plastics articles. While employed at the R&D Department of Union Carbide Corporation [1] Olabisi earned eight patents [5] that addressed the conservation issue. The two key process patents are: Process for the molding of plastics structural web and the resulting articles [14] and Structural foam molding process. [15]

The conservation activity of developing new plastics materials through blending of two or more structurally different homopolymers, copolymers, terpolymers and other plastics, resulted in Olabisi's publications on Polyblends, [16] Polymer Compatibilization: Blends of Polyarylethers with Styrenic Interpolymers [17] and others. [18] [19] As part of the industry-university interaction with Polytechnic Institute of New York, Olabisi was appointed adjunct professor of chemical engineering to teach a graduate-level course based on his book, Polymer-Polymer Miscibility [20] that provided some basis for research projects on plastics materials conservation.

Following the impact of 1973 oil crisis, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) was established (1977) and, in the same year, Nigeria joined OPEC as the 11th member country. A fully-fledged petrochemical complex was in operation in Nigeria in the early 1980s when Olabisi was appointed a professor of chemical engineering, University of Lagos. The need for teaching, research, and public service in petrochemicals, plastics, and polymer materials engineering was high in the country. Olabisi initiated courses and research [21] [22] for a PhD [23] program in petrochemicals. Through his adjunct professorship and other linkages with the University of Akron and Case Western Reserve university, he was able to secure opportunities for some students to earn postgraduate fellowships to pursue PhD [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] in the two universities. These graduates eventually became professors, executives of government parastatals, or captains of industry.

In response to the global events, the new Lagos State University (LASU), established in 1985, decided on having a comprehensive engineering program and Olabisi was appointed the foundation dean of the faculty of engineering, technology, and environmental sciences (FETES) in 1985. Aside from establishing the traditional departments, Olabisi established a department of polymer technology, the first such department in any Nigeria university. An award of the Association of Commonwealth Universities (ACU) Senior Traveling Fellowship enabled him to establish a fruitful linkage with the University of Adelaide resulting in LASU receiving an equipment donation worth more than a million dollars in 1987. On returning to the University of Lagos in 1987, Olabisi was appointed the Head of Department, Chemical Engineering.

By 1988, the devaluation of the Naira forced an economic quandary on Nigeria [29] and Olabisi was appointed the managing director, UNILAG Consult, University of Lagos. In response to the economic climate, he organized the National Workshop on Economic Recovery Program. He also initiated activities on Baseline Ecological Studies of the Niger Delta Basin; Soil Maps of Nigeria; and assisting the government's ongoing Delivery of Technical Aid to Equatorial Guinea. His activities at UNILAG Consult earned Olabisi a special award for dynamic, innovative, and result-oriented leadership in 1990. Olabisi was the Founder and CEO of the African Biographical Centre LTD, Publisher of Who's Who in Nigerian Universities and Research Institutes. [9]

Prior to 1990, gel-casting of ceramic powders was a continuing cooperative research program. [30] between Allied-Signal Aerospace Company and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). As a visiting consultant with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory during the summer of 1990, Olabisi had an Energy Systems Invention Disclosure (ESID No. 917-X: Alternative Low-Toxicity Monomeric Gel Casting Methodology for Molding Ceramic Powders for High-Heat Engine Components) relating to the program, [30] which involved the use of a variety of water-soluble monomers. The results were subsequently subsumed in the patent entitled Method for molding ceramic powders using a water-based gel casting. [31]

In spite of the 1973 oil crisis and the 1979 oil crisis, the petrochemicals organizations in the OPEC countries, including SABIC, still depended on licensing third-party process technologies [32] to fulfil their resin needs. One of the ways SABIC sought to reduce or eliminate the dependence was to initiate a research program at the Research Institute, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals KFUPM, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. In 1990, Olabisi was appointed a professor and Senior Research Engineer at KFUPM. His activities in the SABIC-sponsored program resulted in a joint patent entitled Catalyst and process for ethylene oligomerization. [33] His subsequent activities as a Consulting Engineering Specialist at Saudi Aramco earned Olabisi a 2003 Saudi Aramco Certificate of Recognition for Outstanding Achievements in Engineering & Operations Services. He had a number of publications exemplified by some key articles. [34] [35] [36]

The United States Department of Transportation (DOT) Pipeline & Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) sponsored a research project DTPH56-08-T-000012 at Corrpro (a subsidiary of Aegion). In 2007, Olabisi was appointed director, [3] Internal Corrosion Engineering, as well as the principal investigator of the PHMSA project, the report [37] [38] of which made an impact on the external corrosion direct assessment (ECDA) process. He also became the lead developer of the Pipeline Corrosion Integrity Management (PCIM) Course [39] for NACE International. The other Corrpro Oil and Gas corrosion projects he managed were on behalf of several clients including ENI US Operating Co., Inc. North Slope Alaska; [40] Pioneer Natural Resources Alaska, Inc. North Slope Alaska; Gulf South Pipeline Company LP; Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP; SCANA Transmission Pipelines; Trunkline LNG Company, LLC; Cheniere Energy; and Murphy Exploration & Production Company. His contributions to the Internal Corrosion Monitoring Services (ICMS) Project of Kuwait Oil Company included a publication on Black Powder in Export Gas Lines [41] as well as others. [42] [43] [44] He continues to consult [45] [46] [47] in his capacity as the Chief Consultant, Infra-Tech Consulting LLC, Olabisi remains a member of international professional and engineering organizations.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Thermosetting polymer</span> Polymer obtained by irreversibly hardening (curing) a resin

In materials science, a thermosetting polymer, often called a thermoset, is a polymer that is obtained by irreversibly hardening ("curing") a soft solid or viscous liquid prepolymer (resin). Curing is induced by heat or suitable radiation and may be promoted by high pressure or mixing with a catalyst. Heat is not necessarily applied externally, and is often generated by the reaction of the resin with a curing agent. Curing results in chemical reactions that create extensive cross-linking between polymer chains to produce an infusible and insoluble polymer network.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Polycarbonate</span> Family of polymers

Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures. Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, and some grades are optically transparent. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications. Polycarbonates do not have a unique resin identification code (RIC) and are identified as "Other", 7 on the RIC list. Products made from polycarbonate can contain the precursor monomer bisphenol A (BPA).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bioplastic</span> Plastics derived from renewable biomass sources

Bioplastics are plastic materials produced from renewable biomass sources. Historically, bioplastics made from natural materials like shellac or cellulose had been the first plastics. Since the end of the 19th century they have been increasingly superseded by fossil-fuel plastics derived from petroleum or natural gas. Today, in the context of bioeconomy and circular economy, bioplastics are gaining interest again. Conventional petro-based polymers are increasingly blended with bioplastics to manufacture "bio-attributed" or "mass-balanced" plastic products - so the difference between bio- and other plastics might be difficult to define.

Pultrusion is a continuous process for manufacture of fibre-reinforced plastics with constant cross-section. The term is a portmanteau word, combining "pull" and "extrusion". As opposed to extrusion, which pushes the material, pultrusion pulls the material.

The plastics industry manufactures polymer materials—commonly called plastics—and offers services in plastics important to a range of industries, including packaging, building and construction, electronics, aerospace, manufacturing and transportation.

Polymer engineering is generally an engineering field that designs, analyses, and modifies polymer materials. Polymer engineering covers aspects of the petrochemical industry, polymerization, structure and characterization of polymers, properties of polymers, compounding and processing of polymers and description of major polymers, structure property relations and applications.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Plastic</span> Material of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids

Plastics are a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials that use polymers as a main ingredient. Their plasticity makes it possible for plastics to be molded, extruded or pressed into solid objects of various shapes. This adaptability, plus a wide range of other properties, such as being lightweight, durable, flexible, and inexpensive to produce, has led to their widespread use. Plastics typically are made through human industrial systems. Most modern plastics are derived from fossil fuel-based chemicals like natural gas or petroleum; however, recent industrial methods use variants made from renewable materials, such as corn or cotton derivatives.
