Entry Knowledge

Graduation at Master study programme of Material sciences on Technical University or physical/chemical programme on the Faculty of Science University type.

Aims

Technology of silicates is a chemical technology, using thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, high temperature synthesis and solid stste reactions, which control transport processes of matter or heat to the phase boundary. Gained knowledge shall show the importance of theoretical instruments for creative work and solving of problems in the field of thermomechanical and thermochemical phenomenons.

Student gets the aim of subject under control, i. e. student gains a knowledge, which shows the importance of theoretical instruments for the creative work and solving of problems in the field of thermomechanical and thermochemical phenomenons.
