APAC3009 – Organic and Polymer Chemistry

Introduction of various classes of organic and polymer compounds, emphasizing organic and polymer chemical reactions and mechanisms of major functionalities and their importance in the area of chemistry. Topics covered include: structure and bonding; regio-, geometric, and stereoisomerism; substitution and elimination reactions; synthesis and reactions of alcohols and epoxides; structure and properties of polymer; free radical polymerization; condensation polymerization; crystallization and crosslinking of polymer chains; characterization and application of organic and polymer compounds. Related experiments will also be arranged in this course.
