The course uses teaching methods in form of Lecture - 2 teaching hours per week. The e-learning system (LMS Moodle) is available for teachers and students.

Written and oral exam.

Characterization of colloidal systems and surfaces
1. Size distribution of particles and macromolecules (light scattering, SEC)
2. Charge (zeta potential) and wetting of surface, contact angle
3. Atomic force microscopy (AFM)
4. Chemical and struktural analysis of dispersions
5. Transport properties (sorption and diffusion techniques
Materials analysis
6. Thermochemical analysis and microcalorimetry (DSC, TG, ITC)
7. Rheology and viscometry
8. Technology of thin layers preparation
9. Electric and electro-optical properties
10. Microscopy (optical and electron)

Not applicable.

The main aim of the course is to describe the principles of selected techniques of instrumental analysis, methods used for characterisation of colloidal systems and materials generally used in modern chemistry, chemical technology and in surface analysis. Describe the ways how to select appropriate instrumental technique, settings the measurement parameters and data processing.

Attendance to lectures is not required but is recommended.
