Covers the general aspects of polymer materials, the 'Big 5' technical polymers, spider silk nanostructure, synthetic polymers, major application segments of plastics, and the activities of the Polymer Science department at EPFL.
Explores the mechanisms and applications of controlled radical polymerization techniques, enabling precise control over polymer structure and composition.
Explores the basics of polymer synthesis, focusing on controlling molecular weight through reaction parameters and strategies like stoichiometry and chain stoppers.
