Introduction to functional polymers

  • Number of hours

    • Lectures 12.0

    ECTS

    ECTS 1.5

Goal(s)

The scientific and technologic field related to functional polymers is very broad. Therefore a selection of applications allowing the multifunctional aspects i.e. chemical, physicochemical, mechanical to be emphasized has been done. In addition the scientific domains have been selected in view of their societal and industrial impacts. They are related to renewable energy sources
i.e. advanced batteries and Fuel Cells and to environmental aspects dealing with water purification through membrane separation processes.
