In the course “Design and analysis of sustainable polymeric materials” the students will get acquainted with a broad chain of knowledge in polymer chemistry. The course will cover basic and advanced polymerization techniques and catalysis for making tailor-made structures. It will be demonstrated how a given polymerization process technology as well as the nature of active catalytic species can influence molecular properties of synthesized macromolecules. Following that, molecular characteristics of the polymer chains will be related to their rheological behavior, polymer morphology and processing behavior. The students will get familiar with modern polymer analysis and characterization techniques, polymer rheology and polymer processing. A particular focus will be given to structural elucidations and structure-property relationships. Finally, industrial examples will be showcased and sustainability problems will be discussed.
