Topics for theoretical discussions previous to the regular seminars (2017)
 

For each theoretical topic two students are assigned. One of them will be the presenter and should present answer to the theoretical question. The second one will be the challenger (opponent), who, during the presentation will find a gap in the explanations, discuss it with the presenter or provide second opinion. He/she should show constructive criticism. 
The theoretical discussions will start at 12h, before the regular seminars and will be in duration of 20 minutes.
 
Verónica Alvarez        16.01.2017
Present overview of results from one article of your choice, published in last six month in the area of emulsion polymerization. Explain your selection, as well.

Iñaki Emaldi          06.02.2017
Describe the mechanism leading to formation of branched chains and how the gel can be formed, and, explain why polymers that contain high gel fractions in general have lower molecular weight of the sol part.
Challenger (opponent): Nicholas Ballard

Elodie Limousin         13.02.2017
Define types of reactors and modes of operation in emulsion polymerization. How the selection of reactor type can influence the polymer properties?
Challenger (opponent):  Shaghayegh Hamzehlou

Noushin Rajabalinia        20.02.2017
Explain the advantages, the theory and some examples of the Capillary Hydrodynamic Fractionation technique for determination of particle size and distribution
Challenger (opponent):  Amaia Agirre

Asier Fernández        06.03.2017
Redox polymers: Definition, types and characterization methods
Challenger (opponent): Guiomar Hernandez

Antonio Domínguez        27.03.2017
3D printing technologies and role of polymers.
Challenger (opponent): Naroa Sadaba

Sebastian Dron        10.04.2017
Define the minimum film formation temperature and state what factors influence it.
Challenger (opponent): Alexandre Simula

Bertha Pérez         08.05.2017
Discuss the mass transfer and monomer partitioning in emulsion polymerization
Challenger (opponent): Julie Movellan

Boris Bizet         15.05.2017
Present short overview of recently published results (last 6 months) in a topic of your choice. Explain your choice.

Adrian Badía          12.06.2017
Describe intervals I, II and III of emulsion polymerization in batch reactor. What happen if the process is performed in semibatch reactor?
Challenger (opponent): Patricia Leal
