Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• In the field of chemistry, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in chemistry.
• Help lead and complete a major development project, individually or in teams, related to chemistry.
• Mobilise, articulate and promote the knowledge and skills acquired.
• Assess the degree of complexity of the project and take into account the objectives, allocated resources and constraints that characterise it.
• Manage research, development and innovation within chemistry and/or its applications.
• Understand unprecedented problems in chemistry.
• Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
• Pursue their education and gain additional knowledge and new skills.
• Apply high quality scientific methodology.
• Critically reflect on the impact of chemistry in general and projects to which they particularly contribute.

Learning Outcomes of UE

The master students will be able to identify the key-parameters about polymeric materials in function of their structure and thermal/mechanical properties. They will be also able to establish the technico-scientific issues about polymeric materials in the frame of given applications such as packaging and electronics.

Content of UE

The outline of the TU is as follows: Plastic materials in industry (classification and main families). Selection of plastic materials (mechanical, thermal and optical properties, and so on.) Physicochemical behaviors of plastic materials (viscoelasticity, melt-viscosity and blending, and so on.) Polymer processing (injection, blowing, so on.).
