The goal | This course aims to extend the knowledge on the structure, properties and applications of polymeric materials. This will enable educated assessments on the choice of polymeric materials for a given application and the effect of the chemical structure on the polymer properties. | |||
The outcome | After the students fulfilled all the requirements and passed the exam, they should be able to explain and relate the properties of a given polymeric material to its chemical structure, explain how the choice of synthesis and processing technique affects the properties of the resulting polymeric products, choose a suitable polymeric material for a given application taking into account the structure, properties, environmental aspects, and commercial availability of the material. | |||
