What you'll learn

  • Fast reviewing of polymer engineering
  • Learning 10 basic curves related to different concepts of polymer
  • Illustration of polymer chemistry and structure by schematic images and animations
  • Reviewing the polymerization methods, polymer morphology, and rheology
  • Investigation of physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of polymeric materials
  • Introduction of crosslinked and filled polymers
  • Improvement of research ability by designing questions and practices

Course content

11 sections • 11 lectures • 59m total length

  • Curve 1: Properties vs Molecular Weight5:30

    Explore how polymer properties, including melting point and mechanical strength, rise with molecular weight due to chain entanglement, while processing becomes harder at very high weights.

Requirements

  • Basic understanding of chemistry or some experience about polymer is helpful but not necessary…

Description

Welcome to the polymer world. In this course, we are supposed to check 10 basic curves in polymer science to review the polymeric basic concepts fast and simply. We try to make sense of polymer by using schematic images and animations. Analyzing the 10 basic curves is an opportunity to investigate polymerization methods, polymer chemistry, polymer structure, morphology, and polymer rheology. Also, the physical, thermal, and mechanical properties of polymers are discussed in the course by these curves. You get familiar with important and practical polymers during the course. Also, crystallization, mechanical analysis, crosslinking process, and percolation theory are noted simply. This course makes you understand polymer basics more deeply…

The course syllabus is:

1-Macromolecules (Molecular Weight)

2-Polymerization Methods (Step and Chain Polymerization)

3-Polymer Crystallinity (Semicrystalline and Amorphous)

4-Polymer Thermal Transitions (Glass Transition Temperature and Melting Temperature)

5-The Polymer Rheology (Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluid)

6-The Mechanical Properties (Tensile Analysis)

7-The Mechanical Fatigue (Mechanical Fatigue Test)

8-The Thermal Stability (TGA and DSC Analysis)

9-The Crosslinking (The Vulcanization Process)

10-The Percolation Theory (Polymeric Composite)

We have designed a question or practice for you at the end of each session. These practices help you to learn interesting points while your research ability improves.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who is interested in chemistry and polymer science
  • University students in organic chemistry and polymer
  • Those working in the polymer, plastic and tire industry
  • Polymer and chemical engineers
  • university and college students in material science
  • Polymer test analysts
