The aim of studying and bibliography

The main aim of study: Proving the knowledge on the basic methods of modelling polymerization reactions, i.e. with methods of correlating polymerization mechanism with the type of polymer molecular mass distribution

The general information about the module: Statistical, kinetic and simulation methods of modelling polymerization reactions are to be presented.
