CHE461H1
Advanced Materials Properties 39L, 13T

Structure-property relationships in metals, ceramics, polymers, with an emphasis on composite materials. Creep, fracture toughness
and corrosion of each class of material. Use of special alloys, advanced ceramics and fibre reinforced composites to meet unique
performance requirements.

CHE463H1
Polymer Science and Engineering 39L, 12T

The effect of processing on polymer properties using a case study approach. Properties to be examined include molecular, physical,
mechanical and flow behaviour, while processing examples include polymerization of methyl methacrylate, reactive extrusion of
polyethylene, blending of polyethylene with polypropylene, micro-encapsulation by spray drying and recycling of waste plastics.
