OSAAMISTAVOITTEET
The course provides basic skills to specialize in material science including especially polymer technology.
After the course, the student has the ability to:
- identify the diversity and usability of polymers in different applications
- describe polymerization mechanisms and technical manufacturing methods
- understand how the size and form diversity of the molecules affect the properties of a material (eg. thermal and mechanical properties)
- describe how a plastic product is manufactured from a polymer
