Course schedule/Required learning
| Course schedule | Required learning | |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | 1. By blending different materials and causing phase separation, functions that cannot be achieved with a single component can be achieved. In this lecture, the phase separation phenomenon and the feature of its structure will be explained. That is important as design approach for polymeric materials. And the local morphology observation method and various image analysis methods will be introduced as a means of quantifying structure. In addition, several research examples will be explained to help understand how phase-separated structures contribute to the functionalization of materials. 2. Nanocarbon materials have excellent properties such as high electrical conductivity and large specific surface area, and are expected to be applied in various applications in next-generation technologies. In this lecture, we will introduce the catalyst design and growth mechanism from the viewpoint of thermodynamics and kinetics based on examples of carbon nanotube and graphene growth by chemical vapor deposition. The lecture will discuss the relationship between process, structure, and function in the synthesis and application of nanomaterials, using the example of electrochemical biosensors made of carbon nanotubes. | (1) Explain the phenomena and structural characteristics of polymer phase separation. (2) Explain the properties and applications of polymeric materials with phase-separated structures. (3) Explain the growth mechanism of nanocarbons by dry process. (4) Explain the properties and applications of nanocarbon materials. |
