When the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Metal Research was founded in Stuttgart in 1934, he became co-director. In 1951 he retired.

He dealt with electrochemistry and metallurgy, including electrochemical conductivity measurements and susceptibility measurements, sintering, surface refinement, diffusion processes, surface refinement of metals and passivity of metals.

From 1934 to 1953 he was director of the Institute for Physical Chemistry at the TH Stuttgart.

In 1948 he received the Bunsen medal . From 1932 to 1945 he was editor of the magazine for electrochemistry.
