Patrick H. Schnabel, Ph.D. is Vice President of Materials Science
Patrick joined EAG Laboratories in 1998 as a Staff Scientist in the TOF-SIMS group working on commercial analytical projects. During his tenure at EAG, Patrick has broadened his analytical expertise and advanced through various management positions in operations and quality. He led EAG’s first A2LA accreditation and the integration of newly acquired laboratories into EAG’s quality system.
In recent years, Patrick has grown EAG’s Advanced Microscopy business into a global leader of imaging services, and is currently the chairmen of EAG’s Innovation Council, which has been established to advance process automation and data science applications.
Prior to joining EAG, Patrick worked as Scientist and Laboratory Manager at Evonik Industries in Germany, where he worked on surface characterization of polymer filler materials.
Patrick received a master’s degree in Chemical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from the University of Darmstadt, Germany.
Rare earth magnets power some of today’s most advanced technologies. Part 3 of this series explores how the magnets are produced, challenges of maintaining purity at every step, and why precision analysis is essential for building a reliable supply chain.

Minerology was one of the earliest fields to benefit from X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Prior to XRD, minerals could only be identified by their external symmetry, shape, and color. XRD transformed mineral identification into an exact science, being perfect for characterizing crystalline materials by their internal structure, not just external appearance.
