Physicochemistry of Polymers
0600-S2-EN-PP
Basic terminology of polymers. Natural and synthetic polymers. Different divisions of polymers. Mechanisms of polymer synthesis. Thermodynamics and kinetics of polymerisation. Basic properties of polymers (PE, PP, PS, PVC, PET, PA) and their practical applications.
Concepts of number, weight, viscosimetric and z-avergae molecular weights and degree of polymerization. Basics of densitometry of polymers. Step-growth and chain-growth polymerization, mechanism, examples of reactions, differences, radical and ionic polymerization. Polymerization processes (bulk, solvent, suspension, and emulsion polymerization). Recycling of polymers.
Molecular structure of polymer chains. Conformation and configuration of polymer chain, isomerism (regularity and tacticity). Primary, secondary and tertiary structure of polymers. Physical states of polymers, glassy and semi-crystalline polymers.
Overview of polymer processing methods (extrusion, injection moulding). Fundamentals of thermal analysis of polymers with particular emphasis on the method of DSC. Application of the method of DSC to studying the properties and processing of polymers: the temperature and enthalpy of the phase transition of amorphous polymers and semi-crystalline polymers. Polymer processing methods and restrictions on the use of polymer recyclates.
