six different property classifications of materials that determine their applicability
|
1. Metals
2. Ceramics 3. Polymers 4. Composites 5. Semiconductors 6. Biomaterials |
|
Ceramics
|
Metallic and nonmetallic
Most frequently nitrides, oxides and carbides. Insulative to the passage of electricity and heat Resistant to high temp and harsh environments. More then metals and polymers. |
|
Metals
|
Combo of Metallic elements
Large number of non localized electrons (not bound to a particular atom) Good conductors of electricity and heat. Strong and deformable |
|
Polymers
|
Plastic and rubber materials.
Organic compounds based on carbon, hydrogen, and nonmetallic elements Large Molecular structure Low density. flexible. |
|
Composites
|
Consist of more then one type of material.
Fiberglass Strength and flexibility Recent developments include. |
|
Semiconductors
|
utilized because of their unusual electrical characteristics.
electrical properties are in the middle of electrical and insulator conductors. Sensitive to impure atoms. |
|
Biomaterials
|
Implantation into body
Must not produce toxins and be compatible with body tissue. All 5 materials can be used as biomaterials. |
|
Advanced materials
|
materials that are utilized for high technology.
|
|
Smart Materials
components include |
Materials are able to sense changes in their environments and then respond to these changes in predetermined manners
-sensor (that detects input) -actuator (which preforms responsive and adaptive function.) |
|
Actuator
|
performs re9sponsive and adaptive functions. are smart material.
|
|
Nanotechnology
type of approach |
ability to carefully arrange atoms which provide opportunity to develop mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and other properties that are not otherwise possible.
“bottom-up” approach |
|
Nonrenewable resources
which leads to |
Polymers
1) the discovery of additional reserves 2) the development of new materials with renewable properties. 3) increased recycling efforts and the development of new recycling technologies. |
|
four components that are involved in the design, production, and utilization of materials
|
Processing-
Structure- arrangement of its internal components. Properties- reaction when exposed to external stimuli Performance |
|
three classifications of solid materials
|
metals, ceramics, and polymers
|
|
Criteria for picking a material
|
1. Maximum or ideal combination of properties (strength and ductility)
2. deterioration of material properties (lastingness) 3. economics: What will the finished product cost? |
|
atomic weights of the elements generally not integers
|
1. atomic masses are usually not integers
2. taken as an average with the isotopes |
|
