Objectives of the Course | | | Upon taking this course, you aim to learn basics of polymer science, such as what polymers are, how to make polymers, how to characterize polymer properties, how properties are affected by polymer structures, how to design functional polymers, and how biopolymers are different from synthetic polymers. You will get basic knowledge on polymer science first and then abilities to apply the basic knowledge to creating new polymer materials. |
