This course is about plastics and other polymeric materials in a circular society. The properties, production, strengths and weaknesses of the most common polymers are described, both from a user’s perspective and from a sustainability perspective, aiming towards a circular economy. This is an individual project course where the student choses and analyses a real polymer-related scenario, using knowledge in circular economy and polymer science. Participants from outside academia are welcome to choose a topic related to their work experience
Note that this project-based online course will be given in Swedish!
