Course description and aims
This course focuses on nanomaterials, and covers the fundamentals of nanomaterials.
Synthetic strategy of nanomaterials by bottom-up and top-down methods and basic theory of novel or enhanced physical properties resulted in miniaturization are essential in the field of materials science.
These approaches are not only useful for nanomaterials, but are applicable to other materials.
This course introduces cyclodextrins, inclusion compounds and fine polymer particles as organic nanocomposite, metal, metallic oxides and metal calcogenide as inorganic nanomaterials.
Students will have the chance to tackle practical problems by applying knowledge acquired through
this course.
This course facilitates students’ understanding materials and ability to develop novel materials.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Explain nanomaterials.
2) Explain synthetic conceept of nanomaterials.
3) Explain specific properties and features of nanomaterials, and the difference from bulk materials.
Keywords
Nanomaterials, supramolecular chemisty, polymer particles, composites.
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | ✔ Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Towards the end of class, students are given exercise problems related to what is taught on that day to solve.
Before coming to class, students should read the course schedule and check what topics will be covered.
Attendance is taken in every class.
