Units courses prerequisite and corequisite

Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program

Learning unit 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 learning unit

This course aims at explaining the implication of electrochemistry in the field of polymer materials.
