MTEN 328 — Polymer Processing & Technology I
Materials Science and Engineering · University of Ghana
This course is designed to introduce the student to polymers from the MSE perspective. The basics of polymerisation, polymer synthesis, phase behaviors and various techniques to characterize polymeric materials will be outlined. The course also introduces the fabrication and applications of polymeric materials. The relationship between processing, structure, and properties will be presented with respect to the performance and design requirements of typical polymer applications. Introduction; Crystallization, melting and Glass transition Phenomena in polymers; types of polymers (Plastics, elastomers and fibres, miscellaneous applications and advanced polymeric materials); Polymer synthesis and processing (Polymerization, polymer additives, forming techniques for plastics, fabrication of elastomers, fibres and films).
