- Discuss the molecular motions associated with Tg
- Discuss the way in which polymer architecture affects the thermal properties of a range of engineering polymers
- Discuss the primary and secondary crystallisation processes
- Outline the stages of an Avrami analysis
- Discuss the factors that affect blend miscibility
