What is a chemistry expert witness?

Chemistry expert witness candidates generally have PhDs and extensive experience in forensic chemistry, toxicology, pharmacology, medicinal chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, environmental chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering and/or analytical chemistry. In a high-profile case, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may request an expert with prior expert witness testimony experience.

What types of cases require a chemistry expert witness?

Litigation support by a chemistry expert may involve intellectual property matters such as a patent litigation or a trade secret dispute. A chemistry expert might also provide testimony in matters such as a product liability or medical case that requires toxicology or chemical exposure expertise. A forensic scientist with specific knowledge in chemistry can assist in criminal investigations by analyzing evidence. There are numerous sub-disciplines in chemistry that could require an expert witness to opine, and include:

• Analytical chemistry,
• Biochemistry,
• Materials chemistry,
• Medicinal chemistry,
• Neurochemistry,
• Nuclear chemistry,
• Organic chemistry,
• Polymer chemistry
• Physical chemistry, as well as many others.

Chemistry expert witness case examples

  This materials engineering, polymer sciences, and corrosion expert holds a Ph.D., is a registered Canadian professional engineer, and has extensive experience in materials engineering, polymer sciences, corrosion, materials testing, and research and development. This expert has over 20 years of experience in chemical and materials engineering across markets including oil and gas, mining, petrochemicals, consumer goods, and military applications.

  This expert has experience in coolant chemistry and related root cause analysis involving backup generators, mining equipment, and diesel engines. That work has included reviewing coolant chemical analysis, coolant history, metal contamination, and additive packages in support of root cause failure analysis for diesel engines.

  While leading a materials sciences practice, this expert opined on a number of large matters and several smaller matters involving coolant chemistry, additive packages, and engine failure analysis. One matter involved an allegedly deficient or underdosed additive package used in engine coolant at an industrial facility. The analysis concluded that the package was likely deficient or underdosed, but not enough to cause rapid and widespread engine failure, where ongoing wear and tear indicated that the engines had already been damaged with high metal wear indicators before the alleged coolant issue.

  Another matter involved coolant containing an allegedly unstable or unsuitable additive package associated with rapid engine failures. After review of the coolant chemistry, the analysis concluded that the additive package was likely unsuitable for the end use and likely not acceptable to some engine manufacturers. Immersion testing also showed heavy staining, discoloration, and rapid corrosion of some alloys.

  This expert has also addressed smaller matters involving suspected fraud and engine contamination in recreational vehicle and automotive claims. This expert has testified in North America and abroad in both French and English.
