CHIM0283-4  Chemistry of the macromolecules

Duration :  20h Th, 20h Pr
Number of credits :  
Bachelor in chemical sciences, 3rd year2
One-year preliminary programme leading to the Master in Chemical Sciences2
Lecturer :  Christine Jérôme
Language(s) of instruction :  
French language
Organisation and examination :  
Teaching in the second semester
Course contents :  
Introduction to polymer materials.
This course comprises:
- a general introduction of the specific basics for the polymer chemists allowing to describe the structure and the properties of these materials
- a description of the main families of materials and their applications and processing methods
- the study of the synthesis of polymers via polyconsensation and polyaddition mechanisms (including radical, anionic and coordination).
Learning outcomes of the course :  
understand the basic tools of macromolecular chemistry to be able to:
- suggest one type of materials for a targeted application on the basis of their physico-chemical properties
- understand the structure/properties relationship of these types of materials
- discuss their synthesis
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :  
Bases in general and organic chemistry
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :  
Four lab sessions (4h each) are scheduled in order to get a practical approach of the main notions of macromolecular chemistry
Their topics are:
- structure/properties relationships of these materials
- macromolecular synthesis and characterization
- properties, processing and applications relationships of these materials
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :  
Face-to-face
Recommended or required readings :  
A copy of slides is available on My ULg
Assessment methods and criteria :  
Written and oral to check the learning outcomes
