| Aim: The student is made familiar with the background, basic concepts and methods of thermodynamics together with selected topics from general and physical chemistry, illustrated primarily using applications within material science. The attainment of an elementary understanding of material composition, structure and associated properties is an important independant goal of the course. |
| Contents: The electron structure of atoms and molecules, the periodic system, chemical bonds, crystals. The mechanical properties of materials, empirical realtionship with structure and defects etc. Overview of material properties (thermal, electrical, magnetic, optical). The influence of temperature on material properties. Thermodynamic variables of state, temperature. Equations of state, ideal gases. 1. and 2. law of thermodynamics with illustrating examples. Energy, entropy, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy etc. Heat transmission. Machines (heat pumps, cooling machines etc.). Physical and chemical equilibria. Electrochemistry, corrosion. Reaction kinetics. Statistical background of thermodynamics. Boltzmann and Maxwell distributions, kinetic theory of gases (oriented towards the state equation). Model of a simple phase transition. Particle diffusion, defect distribution of materials properties. Characteristics of special materials and their physical-chemical background: glass, ceramics, polymers, composites etc. |
