|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
||||||||
| Pratical examples of the measurement of macromolecules molecular weight (GPC, NMR, DLS), thermal behavior (DSC), thermo-mechanical properties (DMA and rheology) in the research lab in the frame of a small research project. | ||||||||
