CMT640: Teknologi Polimer dan Bahan / Faculty of Applied Sciences

Polymer and material technology is an important discipline that covers all aspect in industrial manufacturing start with the classification of materials to its transformation into the products according to its applications. Materials include plastics and rubbers, metals, ceramics and composites have their unique properties, therefore production of materials required specific technologies. Interestingly, materials technology is a continuously developing discipline. Continuous demand on interesting properties material for new applications acquired new materials and processing techniques. This may found in composite materials in which blend of different materials have the ability to gives superior material properties. As one of main natural rubber producer, rubber and polymer processing and manufacturing are too importance for national polymer industries. The metallurgical processing and production are very importance industrial country such as Malaysia. Materials technology also gives significance contribution on the manufacturing and oil & gas industries.
