Description:
y
MatSci 192/202 will introduce students to the fundamental chemical principles underlying materials structure, properties, synthesis, and applications. Beginning from basic atomic and molecular bonding, pp g g gstudents will learn how electronic structure impacts chemical properties and processing. Topics for the course include atomic and quantum chemistry; molecular orbital theory and molecular
lid b di id b h i d h i dsymmetry; solid bonding; acid-base chemistry; redox chemistry; and coordination chemistry and metal complexes. The course will also cover frontiers of materials chemistry, including nanomaterials, photocatalysis and bioinorganic materials chemistry photocatalysis, and bioinorganic materials chemistry.
Prerequisite: Introductory chemistry and physics.

Materials chemistry & medical advances
Tissue EngineeringBiomedical implants
Just 15 years ago, Bob Langer and his colleague J h V ti i d k bl Joseph Vacanti pioneered a remarkable new process- growing human tissues in the lab. Back in 1987, Langer and Vacanti couldn't get their work published; journal editors didn't see any practical applications. Today, the pair are acknowledged as the fathers of the field of tissue engineering Now

Mendeleev & Meyers (1871): ordering according to atomic weights and similar properties.
* The elements, if arranged according to their atomic weight, exhibit an apparent periodicity of properties.
*Elements which are similar in regards to their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (e.g., Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (e g K Rb Cs)or which increase regularly (e.g., K, Rb, Cs).
* We must expect the discovery of many yet unknown elements–for example, two elements, analogous to Al and Si whose atomic weights analogous to Al and Si, whose atomic weights would be between 65 and 75.
