The goal of the lecture “Degradation, Stabilization, and Additivation of Polymers” is to make students in the field of material chemistry familiar with mechanisms of polymer degradation as well as with possibilities and mechanisms of stabilization and additivation of polymers accordingly to the requirements of individual applications.
1) Knowledge of basic principles and mechanisms of degradation of synthetic polymers
2) Knowledge of environmental impacts determining the life-span of synthetic polymer
3) Knowledge of test methods and testing conditions of polymers related to the intended application.
4) Ability of carrying out selection of polymers suitable for applications under given conditions
5) Ability of designing and evaluation of additive systems
6) Orientation in technical application capabilities of the most used commodity plastics
