MTEN 326 — Organic Chemistry Of Polymers
Materials Science and Engineering · University of Ghana
This course covers introduction to polymers and the different bonding mechanism and functional groups. It also covers defects and diffusion in polymeric materials that determines their engineering applications. Some topics to be treated include bonding in organic molecules. Hybridization and formation of single and multiple bonds; Functional Groups and hydrocarbon molecules; IUPAC naming; Polymer molecules; the chemistry of polymer molecules (Molecular Weight, Molecular Shape, Molecular structures, molecular configurations); thermoplastics and thermosetting polymers; Copolymers; Polymer crystal/crystallinity; Defects in polymers; Diffusion in Polymeric materials; Organic reactions.
