Robert Kaiser, Principal

Dr. Kaiser is the President and Founder of Entropic Systems, Inc. (ESI).   The company was created to pursue the development of a novel method of removing small (i.e. micron sized) contaminant particles from solid surfaces..

Dr. Kaiser has been studying interfacial phenomena for over 30 years.  It was the focus of his research at MIT, where he received his SB, MS and ScD degrees in Chemical Engineering, and held an appointment as Visiting Scientist in MIT's Center for Materials Processing.  Since graduate school, Dr. Kaiser’s research has been focused on the behavior of very small particles.  His work has included investigations of fine particle agglomeration and pelletization, as well as the dispersion of fine particles to form stable colloidal suspensions.

Previous to starting ESI, Dr. Kaiser was previously employed by AVCO Systems Division in Lowell, MA, and by the M.W. Kellogg Company in Piscataway, NJ.   While at AVCO, Dr. Kaiser was best known for his innovations of "magnetic liquids".  He received two NASA invention awards, one of which was for his development of stable colloidal dispersions in perfluorinated liquids.

Dr. Kaiser has also served as a Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, stationed at the Quartermaster Research and Development Command, Natick, MA. 

Dr. Kaiser is the author/co-author of numerous technical publications and reports on particulate phenomena and magnetic liquids and is the recipient of sixteen issued U.S. patents.

Dr. Kaiser is a Registered Professional Engineer in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. He was elected to Sigma Xi, Tau Beta Pi, and Phi Lambda Upsilon. He is a member of the American Chemical Society, the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, and the Institute of Environmental Sciences.
