Description

This lecture covers the definition of a polymer, the influence of polymer chain architecture on properties, the different states of polymers, types of polymers, and the importance of chain branching. It also discusses the influence of chain length, chain configuration, isomerism, and tacticity on physical properties. Furthermore, it delves into the polymerization reaction, nomenclature of polymers, copolymers, molecular weight distribution, and the consequences of high molar mass on physicochemical properties, processing, and mechanical properties. The lecture concludes with an analysis of thermal transitions of polymers, classification of polymer materials based on structure, viscoelasticity, and determination of mechanical properties of polymers.
