Unit Description

This unit is an introduction to the preparation, behaviour, and analysis of materials from a molecular perspective. Materials covered in the unit include macromolecules, colloids, zeolites, nanotubes and surfactants. Analytical techniques including electron microscopy, thermal analysis, atomic force microscopy, and light scattering will be discussed. CHEM 506 will include additional topics and greater depth of coverage of the material, and will demand a higher level and degree of difficulty in assessment tasks.
