Objectives Provision of knowledge for gaining a thorough basic understanding of the processes involved in the structuring of polymers from the molecular level up to the macroscopic level as result of their processing.
Subject 1. Structures in polymers

properties of single molecules
equilibrium properties of polymeric materials (MWD, polymer solutions, polymer blends, phases and phase diagrams)

2. Structuring processes

reactive (polymerization, setting, degradation)
non-reactive (mixing/demixing, solidification (vitrification, crystallization) and melting, LC transitions, nucleation in polymeric substances, secondary crystallization, solid-solid transitions, tempering)
combinations

3. The role of external physical quantities in structuring processes

the role of temperature and pressure, heat transfer, geometrical constraints (fronts, crystallization in thin specimens), kinetics, deformation induced kinetics

4. Structure – property relationships

bulk and interface properties, properties in small layers
