The goal | Students acquire basic theoretical knowledge on the colloid systems, the importance of particles of colloid size and on their properties. | |||
The outcome | After the students fulfilled all the requirements and passed the exam, they are capable to understand the physico-chemical fundamental principles of colloidal behavior and to apply the acquired knowledge to practical problems in their future work. | |||
