Coatings Science Short Course

Presented by the North Dakota State University Department of Coatings and Polymeric Materials

The Coatings Science Short Course is designed for all levels of scientists and technologists working in the field of coatings. For those relatively new to the field, the short course provides a comprehensive discussion of the basic principles of coatings science. For more experienced chemists, the short course may provide a broader perspective and more fundamental understanding of coatings science. Participants should have had some background in college level chemistry, including organic chemistry. Laboratory sessions are included in the course to illustrate the concepts from the lectures. The following are course topics for this course.
