What will I learn?
This course provides a practical foundation in ring strain, thermochemical data, and conformational analysis for C3–C6 cycloalkanes, applying these to solvent-resistant polymer coatings and stability. Learners will understand how ring size, substituents, and conformations influence packing, Tg, reactivity, ring opening, safety, and performance, supported by current experimental and computational tools.
