Entry requirements
Materials and Manufacturing Processes I, 5 credits or equivalent.
Learning outcomes
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- explain the principles of different methods for production of materials from solid phase, liquid phase, gas phase and solution
- explain and compare methods to produce various types of porous materials
- explain and compare methods to produce nanostructured materials
- describe the strengths of different methods and their limitations
- give examples of technical applications of material produced with different methods
Content
Chemical synthesis of inorganic and hybrid materials: solid phase, material production from solutions, melt systems and gas phase. General principles and prerequisites are discussed for each method with concrete examples of technically important materials. Especially, inorganic polymers, porous materials and nanostructured materials are treated. Thermodynamic calculations.
Instruction
Lectures, laboratory work and seminars.
Assessment
Examination takes place by written examination (3 HE credits), and by written and oral presentations and active participation in laboratory work and seminars (2 HE credits). To pass final grades it is required that all parts have been assessed passed. The final grade is received as a weighing of the results of the written examination and other parts.
