The aim of this subject is to introduce students into the rudiments of chemistry and physics of the crystalline and amorphous state of substances. During this course of study students get familiar with the principles of the characteristics of solids. Emphasis is put on the understanding of the physical and chemical nature of phenomena such as thermo chemistry, chemical kinetics (or reaction kinetics) and phase equilibrium. The course also provides an introduction into the study of solids and inorganic composites, putting an accent on the building and construction material industry.
Graduate is well versed in the area of polymeric materials used for masonry applications. |
