Polymerization Course
This Polymerization Course equips you with essential skills for polyethylene production. Delve into radical and coordination mechanisms, reaction kinetics, molecular weight control targeting Mn ≈150,000 with narrow PDI, branching, microstructure, and process optimisation. Connect these to properties ideal for flexible packaging, using industrial catalyst options, reactor choices, and practical tools for immediate application in real-world chemistry.
