Course description

Large amount of polymer metrials are widely used nowadays. The polymer is one of the indispensable mataterials for our life. High peformance and highly functinalyzed the polymer materials should be nessary for application in high technology industry. Furthermore, enviomental harmonization of the polymer materials should be required. In this recture, we study about basics of polymer synthesis and features of various polymerization methods, which should be usable for development of new polymer materials.

Purpose of class

Studying about basic reactions of polymer synthesis: radical polymerization, cationic polymerization, anionic polymerization, coordination polymerization, condensation polymerization, addition polymerization, addition-condensation polymerization, ring-opening polymerization, group transfer polymerization.
Studying about basic polymer reactions: degradation, functinalyzation.

Goals and objectives

Learning about chian polymerizations (Lectures 1-6)
Learning about sequential polymerizations (Lectures 8 & 9)
Learning about other polymerizations (Lectures 10 & 11)
Learning about chemcal reactions of polymers (Lecture 12)
Learning about bio polymers (Lecture 13)

Language

Japanese
