UNIT I | BASIC CONCEPTS OF POLYMERS | 9 |
---|
Basic concepts of polymers – - Monomers -degree of polymerization–
significance of functionality – classification of polymers based on
:source, structure, thermal processing behaviour, composition and
structure, mechanism, intermolecular forces – nomenclature of polymers
–tacticity – copolymers and its types :alternate, random, block and graft
copolymers.
UNIT II | ADDITIONPOLYMERISATION | 9 |
---|
Kinetics and mechanism of free radical polymerization: chain transfer,
Inhibition and retardation– Kinetics and mechanism of cationic
polymerisation and anionic polymerisation–livingpolymers–
Ziegler-Nattacatalysts–coordinationpolymerisation–kineticsoffreeradicalcopolymerisation
– copolymer equation – monomer reactivity ratio and its significance.
UNIT III | CONDENSATIONPOLYMERISATION | 9 |
---|
Kinetics of poly-condensation reactions (acid catalysed and
self-catalysed) – ring-opening polymerization – multi chain
polymerization: branching, cross-linking–step-wisecopolymerization–
methodsofsynthesizingcopolymers: statistical, alternate and block
copolymers
UNIT IV | POLYMERISATIONTECHNIQUES | 9 |
---|
Classification of polymerisation techniques: homogenous and heterogeneous
polymerisation – bulk or mass polymerisation – Tromms droff effect –
solutionpolymerisation–
suspensionpolymerisation–emulsionpolymerisation–interfacialpolymerisation–
meltpolycondensation. Advanced Polymerization Techniques - Atom Transfer
Radical Polymerization (ATRP), Group Transfer Polymerization (GTP),
Reversible Addition Fragmentation Termination (RAFT).
UNIT V | MOLECULARWEIGHTANDITSDISTRIBUTION | 9 |
---|
Molecular weight of polymer – number, weight and viscosity average
molecular weights – molecular weight distribution (problems) – molecular
weight determination: end-group analysis, colligative properties,
osmometry, light scattering, gel permeation chromatography and viscometry.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
OUTCOMES:: Upon completion of the course, students will be able to
