MSE 5210 - Properties of Solid Polymers

Spring. 3 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: MSE 2610 or permission of instructor. Corequisite: MSE 3010 or permission of instructor.

C. Ober.

Course provides a general introduction to this diverse field including synthetic and natural polymers for engineering applications. Covers structure, order, and dynamics integrating aspects of chemistry, physics, and engineering as needed to understand macromolecular materials. Relationships between structure and properties are elucidated from a materials science perspective. Examples from current literature are also discussed to expose students to the state-of-the-art in the field.
