Christine Jérôme
Language(s) of instruction :
French language
Organisation and examination :
Teaching in the second semester
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite :
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Course contents :
The electrochemical process can be applied to the synthesis and study of some polymer materials. It also allows an interesting way of preparation of nanomaterials. This course includes:

- the synthesis of polymer coatings strongly adhering to metals

- the synthesis and electrochemcail study of conjugated polymers

- the construction of nanomaterials by electrochemical process
Learning outcomes of the course :
This course aims at explaining the implication of electrochemistry in the field of polymer materials.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills :
Basic knowledges on macromolecular chemistry and electrochemistry
