Objectives
The knowledge and skills appropriated during the second year of the education are enlarged withsome specific physico-chemical applications in order to provide the student a nice physico-chemical view in a broad spectrum of applications.

Topics
*electric and magnetic properties of molecules : dipoolmoments, permittivity, intermolecular forces,magnetisation.
*the liquid state : forces in liquids, rheological properties, kinetical phenomenas.
*processes at interfaces : surface tension, formation of micels, surfactantia and applications.
*the solid state : Miller indices, X-ray diffraction, cristal classification, neutron and electron diffraction, determination of structures, conductivity.

Prerequisites
Principles of thermodynamica and the theory of ideal gasses.
