Modulinhalte
This module covers basic topics of polymer chemistry. The lecture Introduction to Macromolecules gives an overview on the general aspects of polymers and the lecture Organic Chemistry and Polymer Synthesis deepens the view on the basic synthesis and characterization methods. The lab course Basic Chemistry and Polymerization Lab allows the student to perform their first polymerization including all preparative steps like distillation of educts up to precipitation of products.
Lectures:
1. Introduction to Macromolecules
  • General introduction and history of polymer science
  • General principles of polymer synthesis (step growth, chain growth, thermodynamics, kinetics, copolymerization, technical polymerizations, living polymerization)
  • Reactions with polymers: isomerization, grafting, crosslinking
  • Basics of polymer characterization: end-group titration/NMR, osmometry, viscosity, chromatography, mass spectrometry, Flory-Huggins theory, polymer additives
  • Microphase-separated polymers: block copolymers, thin films, amphiphilic polymers in solvents, micelles, polymer crystallization, amorphous state
  • Polymer materials and their bioprofiles (recycling, degradation, biological asessments)
  • Applications of polymers in medicine, microelectronics, in society.
2. Organic Chemistry and Polymer Synthesis
  • Basic principles of organic chemistry
  • Reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry
  • Principles of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis
  • Basics of solution-state NMR
  • Free-radical and controlled free-radical polymerizations
  • Living polymerizations, block copolymer synthesis
  • Catalytic polymerizations (Ziegler/Natta, metallocene, ROMP)
  • Polycondensation
  • Network synthesis/thermosets
Lab course:
1. Basic Chemistry and Polymerization Lab
  • Basic operations (distillation, recrystallization, precipitation)
  • Esterification, amidation, Free-radical polymerization
  • Suspension/emulsion polymerization, Resin preparation (amino-, epoxy-resins)
