|
| Course contents : | This course comprises three important aspects of macromolecular physico-chemistry,i.e. macromolecular engineering, study of macromolecules properties in solution and at the solid state.
The synthesis techniques include: - anionic polymerization of acrylates - controlled radical polymerizations (by atom-transfer (ATRP), mediated by nitroxide (NMP), by reversible addition-fragmentation transfer(RAFT)) - emulsion polymerization
Solution properties of macromolecules are described together with several methods of determination of molecular weight.
Finally, the properties at the solid state are studied (including introduction to rheology,...) |
|
| Course objective : | Give a description of the recent methods of controlled polymerizations, their advantages and limitations and the new materials that can be achieved.
Introduce the behavior of macromolecules in solution and at the solid state. |
|
| Prerequisites : | Basic course introduction to macromolecular chemistry (3rd BAC Prof. C. Jérôme) |

| Organization : | 2H/week between September and December |
|
| Written notes : | Copy of the slides |
|
| Assessment : | Written and oral exams. |
