Summary We are developing a performance-focused, alcohol-free electronic cleaning wipe for gaming controllers and peripherals. A baseline formulation is already defined. We are now seeking a UK-based chemist or formulator to support independent testing and validation, not a full R&D programme. This is a short-term, fixed-scope contract, suitable for an experienced formulator who understands low-residue surface chemistry. What success looks like Confident validation that the formulation does not leave residue Confirmation that surface grip is not degraded after cleaning Clear, practical feedback on any formulation risks before scale-up in full English Responsibilities Review an existing alcohol-free wipe formulation Advise on residue behaviour on ABS and similar plastics Support or conduct basic grip / surface feel testing after drying Flag any issues related to ingredient choice, ratios, or scale-up Provide concise, actionable feedback (not theoretical research) Qualifications Experience in formulation chemistry (detergents, home care, industrial or surface cleaning preferred) Understanding of non-ionic surfactants and low-residue systems Practical, hands-on mindset Ability to work on a short, clearly defined engagement UK-based (for testing / communication convenience) is preferred but not specific Notes This role is not cosmetic or skincare formulation No patent work or long-term R&D roadmap required Ideal for independent consultants or senior chemists open to short engagements If this sounds relevant, please get in touch with a brief summary of your background and availability. Ignore the budget...we will pay for the right outcome.

Hello, I think I can help you with your project. Indeed it is a great match for my background. I would be glad to assist you in this short-term role. I am a chemist (PhD) with extensive experience in formulation (more than 9 years) and chemical regulations in the EU and UK markets. I have developed in the past different cleaners, high-performance driven formulations for advanced optical applications, and other applications from scratch. From your description, I deduce that the critical points of your application is the post-cleaning residue and the tolerance with polymeric surfaces, such as ABS. I am an specialist on polymer chemistry and I think I could work around the problems that might arise to propose you a high-performance alcohol-free wipe. Regarding the organization, I can provide you the recipe and ingredients to produce the prototypes yourself or I can source the materials and do basic testing. We can arrange that later. Anyway, if selected, I will work closely with you to give you feedback based on actual data, not only theoretical assumptions. Of course, all those parameters will affect the total price of the project, so we will thoroughly discuss everything before starting. I am looking forward to discussing with you the details of your project. Best regards, J. Royes

Hello, I understand that you are seeking an experienced formulation chemist to validate an existing baseline formulation for an alcohol-free electronic cleaning wipe tailored for gaming controllers and peripherals. It’s crucial for this process to ensure that the final product leaves no residue and maintains the surface grip of materials like ABS, which is key to user satisfaction. To address your needs, I can conduct a thorough review of your current formulation and engage in practical testing to evaluate the residue behavior on plastics and the grip post-cleaning. Having significant experience with low-residue surface chemistry, I can provide you with clear, actionable feedback on ingredient choices and ratios. This will allow for a smooth transition into possible scale-up, ensuring quality and performance. I pride myself on a hands-on approach and clear communication, ideal for a short engagement like yours. Could you share more about your timeline for the testing phase and any specific parameters or concerns you’d like me to focus on? https://www.freelancer.com/u/proggon Best regards, Wahaj Barlas.
