Date: Tuesdays starting with 19.04.2016, 10:00 (s.t.) – 12:00
Location: Seminar Room: Building C42, 1. Floor
Modern applications in electronics, energy storage, pharmacy and medicine
require completely new material properties, which can no longer be met with
classical materials. The desired properties can be achieved only through
innovative material combinations. Especially inorganic-organic hybrid materials
and nanocomposites represent a rapidly growing class of materials, which allows
providing the desired functionality by targeted chemical design. The lecture gives
an interdisciplinary insight into this exciting field.
Content:
Fundamentals: Definitions and concepts, principles of construction of hybrid
materials, interface determined materials, coatings, porosity, hierarchical
structuring, nano building blocks
Synthesis: Sol-gel process, nanoparticles, concepts of linking inorganic and
organic units, in situ synthesis, mixing processes
Applications: selected examples from the fields of coatings, electronics,
lightweight, sensors, bio-materials, energy storage
Target audience:
Students of science and engineering master courses, PhD students
