Course content
|
First third of the subject is dedicated to polymer degradation, monitoring of various degradation processes and the effect of stabilizers. In next stage the polymer blends will be produced, miscibility and properties will be evaluated. Finally, polymer systems with various additives will be prepared and the effect of the additives will be observed.
