      The goalStudents are expected to gain theoretical knowledge about structure, properties and processing of nanocomposite materials. Students will develop skills in processing of composites as well as in chemical modification of nanocomposite constituents.
      The outcomeStudents will be able to: a) identify levels of nanocomposite structures, b) develop skills for functionalization of nanoreinforcement phase and selection of matrix phase in order to achieve deagglomeration of reinforcement in the matrix, c) use contemporary methods for composite characterization, d) be trained to replace conventional materials with nanocomposites.
      Contents
      Contents of lecturesNanocomposites with polymer matrix: equiaxial nanoparticles, nanofibers, nanotubes and 2D nanostructures as reinforcements (fillers); modification of reinforcement-matrix interphase; processing of polymer nanocomposites; dimensional, electrical, thermal and (nano)mechanical properties of nanocomposites. Nanocomposites with metal and ceramic matrices; processing methods; thin multilayered granular films; hard coatings. Electrospun nanocomposite fibers; nanoporous structures and membranes.
