For example, studying intermediate studies may require some completed basic studies. These are described on the Information about studies tab of the study unit under prior requirements.When you have been admitted to the studies, you must enrol separately via the Sisu information system for the implementation of the unit of study and, for example if set, for a practise group of your choice. You will receive instructions on how to do this by e-mail after you have confirmed your acceptance of the study place by paying the required fee.

Aerosol reactor design. We will cover the main principles of operation of reactors, chambers and flow systems which are most frequently used when using aerosol processes.· Batch reactors· Tubular reactors· Tank reactors· Open processesAerosol generation mechanisms. The fundamental physical mechanisms on which the aerosol generation methods are based on.· Mechanical· Thermal· ElectricalIntraparticle processes. For material synthesis, understanding and control of the material properties is important. In material synthesis via aerosol route, one of the main challenges is to understand the intraparticle processes which lead to different final morphologies and surface properties of the nanomaterial.· Agglomeration· Coalescence· MorphologyAerosol particles vs surfaces. In many applications, the aerosol particles are collected/deposited on surfaces. Therefore, knowledge on the physical and chemical phenomena affecting the deposition is important.· Adhesion· Bounce· Deposition processesAerosol synthesis and nanomaterials. Here we cover the main processes on how the nanomaterials are fabricated in real industrial processes. Different technologically important examples will be covered. Essential classical journal papers will give and addition to the industrial relevance of the topic.· Aerosol processes &amp;amp; CVD· Material synthesis via aerosol route· Applications

After taking the course, the student possesses knowledge of how aerosol routes can be used to generate nanoparticles and fabricate novel nanomaterials. The student understands performance of aerosol reactor design, aerosol generation mechanisms, intraparticle processes, deposition processes of aerosol particles and principles of how to synthesize functional nanomaterials and nanostructures via aerosol routes. The student will also be capable to evaluate and tailor the essential physicochemical properties of the generated nanoparticles choosing appropriate methods and tuning their parameters.
