USM Students Presentations
PSC 361-L Polymer Processing Laboratory
Former Courses Taught at Iowa State University
This is an introductory course providing an overview of underlying science and engineering principles of all classes of materials.
At the end of the course, you should be able to:
1. describe materials crystal structures
2. interpret simple dimensional phase diagrams and predict the microstructure on cooling
3. describe mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of materials and relate them to their crystal structures and processing
4. explain electrical, optical and magnetic properties of materials
5. use processing to change materials properties
6. select materials for specific applications
Presentations Given by Students
To provide students with a basic understanding of polymer science and engineering. To study general structure and properties of polymeric materials and their composites ?with inorganic materials with a special attention to their structure-property relations and end-use applications. To survey fabrication methods for making polymers and composites articles and to compare and contrast the various techniques with respect to materials selections, part design, and cost considerations.
