This course is offered to fourth year students. It aims to introduce important additives and processing techniques commonly used in the manufacturing of thermoplastic and thermosetting polymeric products. The effects of fillers and stabilizers on properties of the polymer materials are introduced. Factors affecting polymer processing are being taught which includes basic rheology, the importance of viscoelasticity in polymers, factors affecting polymer flow and flow through die channels of various geometries. Polymer additives, melt rheology and polymer processes.
