Overview
Chemistry is fundamental not just to the design of small molecules, but increasingly to the preparation of materials ranging from hard colloidal nanomaterials to soft complex macromolecular architectures. These materials have been used by humans throughout the ages: from the Lycurgus Cup of ancient Rome to natural polymers such as … For more content click the Read More button below.
Lectures and tutorials will be complemented by an integrated laboratory course involving the synthesis of gold nanoparticles and controlled radical polymers, and their combination to prepare stimuli responsive networks. A number of characterisation techniques including NMR, size exclusion chromatography, light scattering and electron microscopy will be taught through the laboratory component.
