Learning outcomes
Illustrate how the properties of polymer-based materials are derived from the macro-molecular nature of polymer chains
Assess new polymer-based technologies and critique the advantages and disadvantages relevant to other non-polymer based technologies
Design experiments to evaluate the performance of polymer based devices
Evaluate the current state-of-the-art of emerging polymer technologies
Teaching approach
Assessment summary
Continuous assessment: 50%
Final assessment: 50%
This unit contains threshold hurdle requirements that you must achieve to be able to pass the unit. You are required to achieve at least 45% in the total continuous assessment component and at least 45% in the final assessment component. The consequence of not achieving a hurdle requirement is a fail grade (NH) and a maximum mark of 45 for the unit.
