CHE209 — Polymer Chemistry
Polymer Chemistry, a lecture and discussion course appropriate for any science major and required for the chemical technology program, focuses on showing examples of the interdisciplinary nature of science through the broadly useful field of macromolecules. Topics from chemistry, physics, engineering, and mathematics are brought together in the course. An understanding of polymer nomenclature, structure/property relationships, characterization and testing methods, classification, analysis, composites, additives and fillers is developed. Examples emphasize commercial polymer technology throughout the course.
