Course description and aims
In this lecture, the exercise about organic and physical chemistry will be carried out alternately to understand basic knowledge for polymer chemistry. In organic chemistry part, the exercise related to "Organic Chemistry VI (Amines)" will be carried out. The focus topics of organic chemistry part are shown below: I. amines and heterocyclic compounds, and pericyclic reactions.
In physical chemistry part, physical properties of polymer and related parts of physical chemstry will be practiced. The focus topics of physical chemistry part are shown below: I. phase transition of pure substances, II. property of mixtures, III. characterization of polymers, and IV. structure and properties of polymers. By understanding rubber elasticity, the concepts of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics in polymer physics will be introduced.
The practice examination will be carried out every class to confirm the understanding level about total topics.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this lecture, in organic chemistry part, students will acquire the ability to understand basic organic chemistry about amines and heterocyclic compounds, pericyclic reactions, and solve the related practice problems. In physical chemistry part, the students will acquire the ability to understand basic physical chemistry about pure substances and mixtures and develop their understanding and abilitiy of discussion about the physical properties of polymer by dealing with the knowledge of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.
Keywords

Course schedule/Required learning
| Course schedule | Required learning | |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | Phase transition of pure substances | Explain phase transition of pure substances in terms of thermodynamics. |
| Class 2 | Property of mixtures | Explain property of mixtures in terms of thermodynamics. |
| Class 3 | Characterization of polymers | Explain average molecular weight and polydispersity of polymers. |
| Class 4 | Thermodynamics of rubber elasticity | Evaluate the rubber elasticity; one of the most characteristic mechanical properties for polymeric materials, quantitatively on the basis of thermodynamics. |
| Class 5 | Thermodynamics first law | Predict energy change in various physical and chemical changes in polymer materials on the basis of a law of energy conservation and enthalpy. By using entropy and Gibbs free energy, evaluate spontaneity in physical and chemical change (reaction) in polymer materials quantitatively. |
| Class 6 | Statistical mechanics | Learn how to distribution of the states and various thermodynamic parameters predict by using Boltzmann distribution and the partition functions. |
| Class 7 | Amines and heterocyclic compounds, and pericyclic reactions | Explain synthesis and reactions of amines and heterocyclic compounds, together with pericyclic reactions. |
Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.

If you belong to a Focus other than "Polymer Focus" and want to register this class, please contact with prof. Ishige by 9th June. This class is an exercise class and we have a not large capacity to the number of students in this class, because of the point-rating issue in every lectures.
