Aims

Describe the principles of selected techniques of structural analysis, methods used for characterisation of colloidal systems and materials generally used in modern chemistry, chemical technology and in surface analysis. Describe the ways how to select appropriate instrumental technique, settings the measurement parameters and data processing.
Students attending the course will be able to describe the basic principles of selected methods of structural analysis and methods for characterisation of colloidal systems and materials used in modern chemistry and chemical technology and for surface analysis. Student will be able to select appropriate method for given analysis, its basic settings and make data processing.
