Provide knowledge on techniques of Polymer Characterization, particularly so for participants from third world countries. At the same time prepare the participants for understanding lectures and presentations during the following 12th Annual POLYCHAR World Forum on Advanced Materials (Polymer Applications & Theory). POLYCHAR is derived from Polymer Characterization
There will be tutorial lectures by leading world experts on techniques of Polymer Characterization. Topics include: Thermogravimetry; Differential Scanning Calorimetry including StepScan and Thermally Modulated Calorimetry; Thermal Mechanical Analysis; pVT-Measurements; Dynamic-Mechanical Analysis; Mechanical Testing including Quasi-static and Transient Techniques; Tribology including Friction, Scratch Testing and Surface Tension Determination; Electron Microscopy; Interface Characterization; Electrical Properties of Polymers; Polymer Spectroscopy
