Objectives: The aim of this course is to present different useful methods currently employed for designing and preparation of various macromolecular architectures which can give rise to nanostructuration (block and graft copolymers)

Outline (with number of hours per part)	Lect	PSS	LW
Introduction - General considerations about polymerization reactions: polycondensation and chain polymerization Living and controlled polymerization techniques: general principles Anionic living polymerization and Group transfer polymerization Controlled radical polymerization (NMP, ATRP, RAFT) Cationic and pseudo-living cationic polymerization Ring-opening metathesis polymerization and metathesis reactions in polymer chemistry Macromolecular engineering: strategies and methods for the synthesis of nanostructured polymers (functional polymers, block and graft copolymers, hyperbranched polymers and dendrimers). Nanostructured polymers - case studies: block and graft copolymers.	15	7.5
