Cursusdoelen
The lecture will give an overview on different synthetic methods used in Polymer Chemistry. Basic knowledge of Organic chemistry is required for the course and will be used to explain the synthetic strategies to high molar mass materials. After the course, students will be well prepared to plan syntheses of thermoplasts, thermosets, nanoparticles, block copolymers by classical and state-of-the-art synthesis strategies. The lectures will be accompanied by some live experiments and data will be correlated to polymer characterization techniques (e.g. Gel Permeation Chromatography/ mass spectrometry of polymers, etc.)
 
Inhoud
The class is divided in several topics:
  1. History of polymer science, comparison to low molar mass organic compounds, basic polymerization mechanisms.

  3. Radical polymerization
  4. Copolymerization
  5. Ionic Polymerization/ Living polymerization/ block copolymers
  6. Controlled Radical Polymerization
  7. Ring-Opening Polymerization
  8. Catalytic Polymerization
  9. Heterophase polymerization (nanoparticles)
