Copper is the one who is the most ductile metals. Copper is essential for a various metal alloys such as coins, thermocouples and etc. Copper is essential mostly in some living organisms as the trace dietary mineral. Copper lies below the hydrogen in the electromotive series which it is not…
Cast Iron is processed to remove impurities or slag and is turned into a steel alloy. Therefore steel is an alloy and Iron is an element. Steel is also called as an alloy of iron, with the content of carbon controlled. 4% of carbon in Iron makes it Cast Iron and when the carbon content is less than 2%, the product is steel. Cast Iron is made from pig iron, which is the by-product of smelting of iron from an iron-foundry. Mild steel, which is also known as…

Metals are shiny, conduct heat and electricity the best out of the three, and are malleable and ductile. Metalloids have properties of both metals and non-metals. Non-metals are one the right side of the table. The metalloids are between the non-metals and metals, the metals making up the majority of the table. Periods are horizontal rows that help…
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND The catalytic converter was invented by Eugene Houdry, a French mechanical engineer and skilled in catalytic oil refining who lived in the United States around 1950. The invention of catalytic converter has a major role in controlling harmful emissions. When the paper of smog in Los Angeles was published, Houdry became anxious about the role of smoke stack and automobile exhaust in air pollution and established a company, Oxy-Catalyst. Houdry primary…
CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION Concrete a manmade material widely and greatly used in construction Industry. This concrete is a mixture of adequate proportion of cement, water and aggregate. Hardening (or) strength of this material is obtained by the chemical action between water and cement. As the time increases the stronger it grows (i.e strength of concrete is directly proportion to its age).The durability, strength, versatility and other characteristics of concrete depends upon the properties and…
