Course description |
The focus of this lecture is the basic knowledge on polymers such as polymer structures, methods of polymerization and processing of polymers, their properties. |
Expected Learning |
The aim of this lecture is to make students to understand the basic principles on polymer science such as polymer structures, polymerization reactions, properties of polymers. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the Curriculum maps. (URL: https://www.tuat.ac.jp/campuslife_career/campuslife/policy/) |
Course schedule |
1. Schedule and an introduction of the lecture (Definition of polymers: the type of polymer: nomenclature: processing method) 2. Structure of macromolecules (structure of polymer chain, crystalline and amorphous polymers, polymer structure and its properties) 3. Degree of polymerization (Measurement of average molecular weight) 4. Polycondensation and polyaddition I (condensation type and addition type, kinetics of polycondensation) 5.
