Polymer Technology Syllabus for B.Tech Eighth sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Polymer Technology B.Tech 2016-2017 (R13) eighthsem is as follows
OBJECTIVE:
To enable the students to compute molecular weight averages from the molecular weight distribution, Condensation polymerization and transition in polymers.
UNIT I : INTRODUCTION [6 Hours]
History of Macromolecules – structure of natural products like cellulose, rubber,proteins – concepts of macro molecules – Staudinger’s theory of macromolecules – difference between simple organic molecules and macromolecules.
UNIT II : ADDITION POLYMERIZATION [12 Hours]
Chemistry of Olefins and Dienes – double bonds – Chemistry of free radicals monomers – functionality – Polymerization: Initiation – types of initiation – free radical polymerization – cationic polymerization – anionic polymerization coordination polymerization – industrial polymerization – bulk, emulsion, suspension and solution polymerization techniques – Kinetics – Copolymerization concepts.
UNIT III : CONDENSATION POLYMERIZATION [9 Hours]
Simple condensation reactions – Extension of condensation reactions to polymer synthesis – functional group reactivity – polycondensation – kinetics of polycondensation- Carother’s equation – Linear polymers by polycondensation – Interfacial polymerization – crosslinked polymers by condensation – gel point.
TOTAL : 45 PERIODS
OUTCOME:
At the end of this course, the student would be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding on the principles related to the synthesis and characterization of polymers.
