Goal(s)
This course proposes to address the issue of materials for the automotive industry. For this purpose, two examples are given via 2 industrial stakeholders.
- Thermoplastics for the automotive industry by an engineer from ROLEX
- Automotive coatings and paints by an engineer from BOLLIGUNDKEMPER
The objective of the course is to communicate on the composition of paintings in order to understand their structure and know the essential compounds.
Then, the fact of approaching the formulation part through practical work based on formulas and real problems makes it possible to make the link between formula and performance. This does not make these students experts in formulation but should enable them to understand the mechanisms that prevail in formulation and judge whether a trade in an activity that requires formulation is likely to interest them.
