DRX: Characterization of solids by X-ray powder diffraction
Would you like to acquire expertise in X-ray powder diffraction?
We offer 3 courses for 3 levels of training:
- Beginner level: fundamental and technical aspects of X-ray powder diffraction and compound identification.
- Intermediate level: fundamental aspects and techniques for extracting structural parameters.
- Advanced level: structural determination and application to different types of solids (organic, inorganic and hybrid).
One or more courses may be taken during the same training session.
The solutions studied during practical experimentation can be derived from concrete cases proposed by trainees prior to the course.
Dates: second half of 2024
Full course: 45 hours - 6 days
Beginner/intermediate/advanced level: 15 hours - 2 days
Location: IUT Montpellier Sète - Montpellier

Polymers: Thermal, mechanical and rheological characterization of polymer materials
During the "Polymers" Short Course, you will first learn about polymer materials in the solid state, then carry out and interpret mechanical and thermal tests to characterize polymers.
The courses in this programme are designed to provide skills in the thermomechanical analysis of polymers:
- DSC and ATG measurement of characteristic temperatures (Tg, Tf, Tc, Td)
- Measuring mechanical properties: tensile tests
- Measurement of thermomechanical properties by DMA and rheometer
Dates: April 15 to May 16, 2024
