Course description and aims
In order to study on the structure and properties of crystalline polymer, it is essential to acquire the ability to analyze the structure and properties by using various analytical methods. This course focuses on the wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), including the theory and analytical methods, which are essential techniques to characterize the structure and properties of crystalline polymer.
This course also focuses on the basic concepts to control the structure and properties of crystalline polymer and polymer composites after introducing the research on the crystallization and microcellular foaming of crystalline polymer by using high-pressure carbon dioxide treatment, and the research on the electrical conductive particle-filled polymer composites.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, student will be able to:
1) Have an understanding of wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) that are essential techniques to characterize the structure and properties of crystalline polymer.
2) Have an ability to analyze the structure of polymer by using WAXD and SAXS.
3) Have a fundamental understanding of basic concepts to control the structure and properties of crystalline polymer and polymer composites.
