Lecture:

The starting point of the lecture are structure and dynamics of polymers. With regard to these properties, several experimental methods of their exploration are explained. The following topics will be discussed:

Composition and properties of polymers:

·        Structure and dynamics of polymers

·        Glass transition, semi-crystalline systems, mesophase-separation, transient networks

Methods to determine structure:

·        Infrared spectroscopy

·        Atomic force microscopy

·        X-ray und neutron scattering

Methods to detect dynamics:

·        Dielectric spectroscopy

·        Shear rheology (mechanical spectroscopy)

·        Photon correlation spectroscopy

·        NUclear Magnetic Resonance

Seminar: Analyses of publications and presentations on selected methods.
