Teaching methods giving:

- lecture (conventional) using multimedia presentations.

Teaching methods searching:

- laboratory: the subject includes a specialized laboratory. The aim is to familiarize students with methods used at the nanoscale for innovative materials, which are now becoming one of the primary methods of modern engineering materials. Laboratory classes are related to the curriculum content covered during lectures. Based on available instructions and recommended literature, the student completes the tasks independently independently after preparation. Based on the observations and measurement results, the student writes down the appropriate reaction equations, performs calculations, and draws conclusions.

The subject consists of a series of lectures and laboratories that introduce the broadly understood material chemistry and nanotechnology. Although it is an optional subject, it has been successfully conducted for several years. The lecture covers obtaining nanomaterials. During classes, special attention is paid to the methods of obtaining and characterizing their physicochemical properties. Practical aspects of the commercial application of nanomaterials are discussed .

The classes will be implemented in the laboratories of the Department of Materials Chemistry, Adsorption and Catalysis. They include synthesizing selected groups of nanomaterials and modifying their structure and chemical nature. Great attention is paid to the most expansive possible use of instrumental methods. Laboratory classes are related to the curriculum content of the lectures. Based on the available instructions and recommended literature, students perform tasks independently after preparation.

Program content of the lecture:

1. Methods - nanotechnology and "green chemistry".

2. Nanomaterials: classification, types, similarities, differences.

3. History of obtaining nanomaterials and development of nanotechnology.

4. Presentation of the historical background and factors determining the development of nanotechnology.

5. Synthesis of nanomaterials.

6. Methods and techniques of their characterization.

7. Defects. Non-ideal structure.

8. Chemical modifications - functionalization.

9. Biological activity. Toxicity.
