Course description
In this class, you learn basics of polymer physics from both sides of physical and chemical points of views. The contents include mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of polymers which are particularly important for the polymer physics. Goal of this class is to learn skills of fundamentals from the viewpoint of microscopic properties and applications from the viewpoint of macroscopic properties of polymers. This class also focuses on widely professional knowledge obtained from introduction of recent advanced research and actual experimental and samples.
Expected Learning
You can understand mechanical (stress and strain, viscoelastic), thermal (glass transition, relaxation phenomena) and electrical (dielectric, piezoelectric, conducting, ion-conductive) properties of polymeric materials.
Course schedule
Part 0: Class guidance
Part 1: Fundamentals of polymer science (molecular weight and dispersion of polymers)
Part 2: Mechanical properties of polymer (strain and stress, viscoelastic properties of polymers)
Part 3: Mechanical properties of polymer (elasticity of rubbers, non-linear phenomenon of viscoelastic materials)
Part 4: Thermal properties of polymer (Measurement of thermal properties of polymers)
Part 5: Thermal properties of polymer (Glass transition, crystallization and melting of polymers)
Part 6: Electrical properties of polymer (Dielectric, piezoelectric and conductive properties of polymers)
Part 7: Final examination
Prerequisites
Physical chemistry (please note that you cannot take this lecture if you have already taken Polymer Chemistry and Polymer Physics.)

Assessment/Grading
The grade evaluation in this online class is premised on all attendances, and comprehensively evaluates the attitude to learn, reports, and online tests. Standard study time set by our university is required to get the grade. The rate of evaluation is as follows: Approximately 20% on report papers, 30% on attendances and 50% on the online examination. Grade will be given according to the following criteria by comprehensive evaluation: S: 90 points or more, A: 80 or more and less than 90 points, B: 70 or more and less than 80 points, C: 60 or more and less than 70 points.
