Polymer Testing and Analysis
A.Y. 2026/2027
Learning objectives
The course focuses on the testing, analysis and characterization of polymers, including synthetic and natural or bio-based polymers. Classical and advanced testing methods of bulk polymers, polymer coatings, solutions and dispersions are covered.
The course illustrates tests performed according to specific ISO standards and analyzes the results collected for a wide range of polymer-based products and formulations for a variety of industrial applications. In all instances, the structure/property correlation of polymers is discussed.
