Fundamentals of polymer chain behaviour: Inter-and intra-molecular forces and chain statistics, rubber elasticity and visco-elasticity. The solid-state properties of polymer materials and their applications: plastics, rubbers, adhesives, resins, binders and coatings etc. Polymer phases: Liquid, glass and crystalline states. Phase transitions: Glass transition, crystallization and spinodal decomposition. Multi-component systems:
- Morphology and thermodynamics of polymer blends and alloys
- Compatibilization with block copolymers.
- Mechanical properties and failure of polymers.
- Physical characterization of polymers.
- Resins and binders.
