From entity to solid

The first part of the module will consist in presenting generalities on materials: reminder on the states of matter - chemical bonds - quantities associated with the properties of materials (resistivity, transmittance, viscosity, Young's modulus, ...). The notions discussed will be illustrated through polymeric and inorganic materials.

In a second phase, in a reversed classroom, students will discover the different materials through applications (varnish, paint, energy recovery, pollution control...)

To highlight the relationships between the structure of matter and the properties of materials through their use in everyday applications.

Students enrolled in this module will need to have previously taken courses in:

L1 PCSI or equivalent level

Continuous assessment with a final exam

General information on materials, inorganic materials, polymeric materials, composites.

Piezoelectricity, photocatalysis, magnetism, photovoltaic, adhesion, ...
