Learning Outcomes
After finishing the course, the student is able to define the most important polymeric materials as well as their structure, properties and applications. Student knows the most common components of plastic materials. In addition, the student can explain how the properties of polymeric materials can be modified and what requirements and limitations different applications set. Student understands the basic principles of life-cycle analysis and sustainable development and knows the most common methods to measure the sustainable development.
