contents
Materials science is an interdisciplinary research area which covers the chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering of all classes of materials. The results of materials science play essential roles in the environmental protection, the medical and biotechnology, energy transformation, transportation systems, storage and supply, information technology, computing, system controls, as well as the electronic consumer goods. Traditionally, the materials are divided into metals, ceramics, polymers (including composites), and other inorganic and organic materials. Recently, the subdivision of materials considers their properties and applications; structural and functional materials, eco-, biomaterials, magnetic, optic, semiconductor etc. materials. The “Chemical Materials Science” subject introduces the materials according to both traditional and up to date subdivisions. Chemical materials science investigates the basic principles and provides the necessary chemical background for research into the relationship between the synthesis - structure - property triangle of the materials. Thus, it is very important to understand the fundamental processes which lead to specific properties.

The course presupposes the knowledge acquired during the courses physics (1) and calculus. Based on this knowledge, the course begins with a postulatory development of the basics of phenomenological thermo-dynamics, with an outlook to the classical foundations of the topic. A more detailed discussion of a number of chemical applications follows, including mixtures, phase equilibria, chemical equilibria and the chemical thermo-dynamics of electrically charged phases. A brief discussion of the principles of general transport phenomena is followed by some details of diffusion, viscous flow and electric conduction. The focus in applied electrochemistry is on the equilibrium description of galvanic cells.

contents
This course is intended to acquaint the students with the practice of experimental physical chemistry. The goal of the labs, therefore, is to provide a modest introduction to this area of scientific activity. The main topics are: Preparation for an experiment. Calibration of devices and instruments. Data acquisition and processing, computer-based data acquisition. Fundamental limitations on instrumental precision.Treatment of experimental data. Methods to verify and explore fundamental concepts in physical chemistry. Experiments in thermodynamics, kinetics, electrochemistry. Calorimetry, temperature dependence of the vapor pressure, phase equilibria, measurement of surface tension, colligative properties, chemical equilibria, kinetics of homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions, transport processes (viscosity, diffusion). Simple electrochemical measurements: measurement of the electromotive force, temperature dependence of EMF, conductance of solutions.
