Section Title:
Synthetic Nanomaterials
Section Info:
Synthetic Nanomaterials. This course introduces the concepts related to the fundamentals and practical methods for the preparation of nanostructured materials. Principles on nucleation and growth and related subjects of interfacial science, crystal structure and essential characterization techniques will be covered. The main emphasis of the course will be the approaches to non-hydrolytic synthesis of uniform and monodispersed nanoparticles in solution, i.e. the controls of size, shape, facet, and structure of nanomaterials and the production of nanoparticles.Meets with CHBE 594 HY.

Section Title:
Polymer Rheology
Section Info:
Meets with CHBE 594 SAR. Polymer Rheology Course builds a molecular understanding of polymer characterization and properties and develops a link between the physical chemistry of the microstructure and macroscopic behaviors. The course begins with polymeric descriptions from a physical basis and continues with polymer solution thermodynamics in the context of Flory-Huggins theory. After fundamentals, the course considers polymer characterization from a rheological (flow and deformation) perspective. with overage of dynamics, linear and nonlinear viscoelasticity, the rheology of dilute and networked polymer systems, and time-temperature superposition. The course concludes with models for dilute polymeric suspensions, unentangled polymer melts, entanglements, and the reptation model.

Section Title:
Assemby of Functional Material
Section Info:
Meets with CHBE 594 YD. Topic: Assembly of Functional Materials. Covers fundamental principles and industrial applications of self and directed assembly from molecular, nano-, to macro-scale in all classes of materials, in particular molecular and polymeric materials. Topics include meta-stable liquids, solution phase chemistry and kinetics, interfacial stability, interfacial free energies, nucleation theories, crystal growth, aggregation and other phase separation mechanisms, grain growth and grain boundaries, defects formation, flow-induced assembly and aggregation. Lectures will also introduce application of these fundamental principles in the production of a broad range of materials, such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, food products, electronics and solar cells.
