Understanding of the molecular structures of chemical substances and assessment of the reactivity of molecules.
Understanding of basic reaction mechanisms.
Students are able to understand and apply the basic concepts and principles of chemistry, in particular organic chemistry in the context of polymeric materials. They learn to classify the substance classes of organic chemistry, and to recognize the mechanisms of organic reactions.
|
In particular, they will be able to
- Know and explain basic principles and concepts of chemistry, especially organic chemistry [k1].
- Know and classify organic chemistry substance classes [k2].
- Know and understand basic organic chemical reactions and their mechanisms [k3].
- Transfer and apply this knowledge of organic chemistry to polymers [k4].
- Understand and evaluate the structure-property relationships of polymers and plastics on this basis [k5].
