Aims

The subject of the lecture-course is given to apprise the students with several types of polymer processing in the relation to basic polymeric material properties. The target of course is a relationship between
processing – structure of polymer for particular types of techniques and ability to define material requirement for given technology on engineer principle.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Participation on each laboratory practice is necessary. In the case of illness is substitution in alternative time possible.
