Las microcápsulas son partículas micrométricas con materiales de distinta naturaleza en su interior que permiten incorporar nuevas propiedades a distintos materiales en múltiples sectores productivos. El empleo de las microcápsulas permite funcionalizar productos tan diversos como los empleados en medicina, alimentación, cosmética, agricultura, pinturas, plásticos, textiles o automoción entre otros. Este curso está enfocado a técnicos textiles o de materiales y público en general, interesado en conocer como incorporar nuevas propiedades a los materiales mediante adición de microcápsulas. En él se abordan los distintos mecanismos de atrapamiento de principios activos y se profundiza en las microcápsulas y su aplicación, tomando como ejemplo superficies textiles y su posterior caracterización.
An excellent online course offered by edX: how it works
edX courses consist of weekly learning sequences. Each learning sequence is composed of short videos interspersed with interactive learning exercises, where students can immediately practise the concepts from the videos. The courses often include tutorial videos that are similar to small on-campus discussion groups, an online textbook, and an online discussion forum where students can post and review questions and comments to each other and teaching assistants. Where applicable, online laboratories are incorporated into the course.
edX offers certificates of successful completion and some courses are credit-eligible. Whether or not a college or university offers credit for an online course is within the sole discretion of the school. edX offers a variety of ways to take courses, including verified courses where students have the option to audit the course (no cost) or to work toward an edX Verified Certificate (fees vary by course). edX also offers XSeries Certificates for completion of a bundled set of two to seven verified courses in a single subject (cost varies depending on the courses).
