Course description and aims
This course focuses on the basics of polymer structure, especially 1. Shape and size of polymer chain, 2.Elasticity of polymer, 3.Polymer solutions, 4. Molecular weight, 5. Polymer crystal, 6. Polymer glass, 7. Copolymer. First, the relation between the structure and applications in the organic materials is explained.
When we use polymers as materials, the control of the physical properties is important. Therefore it is necessary to know the basic structure of polymers and control the structure for physical properties. It is desirable to understand the basics of the essence of polymer.
Student learning outcomes
By the end of this course, students will be able to understand:
1)Structure from single chain to aggregate (bulk state) in polymer
2)Physicochemical mechanism of structure formation in polymer
3)Basics of mechanism that physical properties appear in polymeric materials

Class flow
Based on PowerPoint slides, I push forward a lecture with questions. In addition, at the beginning of each class, the solution of the quiz (short test) in the previous class is reviewed. Towards the end of class, students are given a quiz related to the lecture given that day to solve.
