The lectures will contain an introduction to Materials: Ceramics, materials, polymers and composites, including some general knowledge, a description of elaboration methods, their (micro)structure, their properties, and some examples of applications.

The students will use the concepts introduced in this course to perform a literature survey and write a bibliographic report about a material of their choice.

Course Description and Pedagogical Methods: 

Based on Lectures & tutorials on face-to-face, the students learn the basic knowledge on phase transitions in Polymer Materials in order to well-understand the impact on the final properties of polymeric materials and their applications. The student is proposed to develop some thinking through examples on polymer blends and block copolymer self-assembly.

This course is developed to introduce eco-friendly design and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) with a focus on materials. The lecture section (CM) comprises 3 modules. The first one is on the concept of sustainable development. The second module is on the tools of ecodesign, with a focus on materials. The different methods to apply ecodesign are presented. The life cycle assessment methodology is presented.  The third module is on the discovery and the use of an LCA software : OpenLCA. The practice section (TD) contains 3 types of exercises : (i) Class discussion on case ; (ii) Group presentations on LCA publications about a chosen material ; (iii) Assignment on LCA to compare two types of plastic bottles using OpenLCA software.

Green Chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances. In this, the course’s goal is to provide basic knowledge about the principles of green chemistry, with a basis in the molecular and materials chemistry, and examines alternative chemistry solutions to support a sustainable development. The level of understanding should be such that the students in their professional career critically can participate in discussions regarding selection and design of chemical methods (i.e., reactions, processes) for enlarged sustainability in industrial production of chemicals, materials and fuels, and to avoid environmental stress caused by pollution and energy-related problems. Students acquire the competence to think of chemistry as a sustainable activity. Basic knowledge in catalysis and organic chemistry is beneficial but not necessary. The course content will include a series of lectures using Power Point slides, case studies, exercises and in-class oral presentations by the students. Students should keep up with assigned reading and ask questions in class or by email.

Lab work. This course is an application of the classes followed in material elaboration and more specifically in polymer chemistry. The synthesis and characterization of different polymers will be performed and linked to the theoretical knowledge.

This practical class is divided in 4 experiments of 8 hrs and and Final individual practical exam. The experiments are:

• Reactivity ratio in radical copolymerization
• Controlled radical polymerization
• Emulsion Polymerization
• Thermosenstive polymers

Based on Lectures and tutorials face-to-face.

Thermodynamics is known to characterize a system macroscopically in terms of energy (and entropy). However, the microscopic nature of any system (known from quantum mechanics) imposes us to link the macroscopic view to the microscopic properties of the particles (atoms, molecules…) composing the system. The lectures and the tutorials will give tools using statistics to describe the state of a system, will focus on the different energy levels of atoms and molecules and how to use them, and will extend the description of the thermodynamic functions. Applications will be performed on simple chemical reactions. 9 hours of lectures and 7.5 hours of tutorials are dedicated to this course.

This course introduces X-Ray diffraction as a method for the determination of crystal structures. Through lectures and tutorials, it covers Bragg’s Law, the use of the reciprocal space and the structure factor to interpret XRD patterns. A short presentation of experimental set-ups is also included.

Students will discover polymer based composite materials. 

The objective of these courses and tutorials is to give them all the knowledge to identify these materials and make choices to meet a specific application (environment, mechanical and thermal stresses, industrial sector, manufacturing processes, production rates). 

The 9 hours of lecture are organized into 4.5 hours of lessons illustrated by examples of composites constituents, parts, processes, ... and 4.5 hours of tutorials focused on applications.

During this course, master students will acquire basic knowledge on composites, their composition, architecture, main properties and main use. In a second part, we will establish the mixing laws used to describe the mechanical behaviour of filled polymers and unidirectional composites. Particular emphasis will be put on simplifying assumptions that limit the use of these models.
