1. Introduction AgesBasic steps in metallurgy

Materials: Substances of which something is composed or made.Every segment of our everyday lives is influenced to one degree or another by materials.

Material Science: Investigating the relationship between the structure and properties of the materials

Metallurgy: The science and technology of extracting metals from their natural sources and preparing them for practical use

1. Introduction AgesBasic steps in metallurgy

The development of metallurgy was a long, and sometimes devious process that involved five basic steps.

1. Identifying and discovering its usefulness

2. Locating metals in quantity

3. Mining the ores.

4. Smelting the metal.

5. Shaping the metal into something useful.

2. Material scienceStructurePropertyProcessingPerformance

The structure of a material usually relates to the arrangement of its internal components.

subatomic atomic microscopic macroscopic

Electrons within individual atom and interaction

with nuclei

Organization of atoms or

molecules relatedto one another

Large groups of atoms, direct observation

by microscope

Structural elementsmay be viewed with naked eye

2. Material scienceStructurePropertyProcessingPerformance

Property is a material trait in terms of the kind and magnitude of response to a specific imposed stimulus.

Mechanical(Strength, Hardness, Ductility, Stiffness)

Electrical(Electrical conductivity,

Dielectric constant)

Thermal(Heat capacity,

Thermal conductivity)

Magnetic(Magnetic moment,

Magnetic permeability)

Optical(Refraction index,

Reflectivity)

Deteriorative(Corrosion)

4. Advanced Materials

Electronic materials Semi conductor• Have electrical properties that are intermediate between the

electrical conductors and insulators.

Electrical characteristics are extremely sensitive to impurity concentration

Si, Ge, ZnOSuper conductor• A superconductor is a material that can conduct electricity or

transport electrons from one atom to another with no resistance.Tl7Sn2Ba2MnCu10O20+

Casting Casting A manufacturing process that pours a liquid material into a hollow mould until the material cools into a solidified shape

5.Metallurgy processCastingForming WeldingPowder metallurgy

FormingForming operations change the geometry of the starting material without cutting it.

Rolling: Compressive deformation process in which the thickness of a plate is reduced by squeezing it through two rotating cylindrical rolls.

Forging: The work piece is compressed between two opposing dies so that the die shapes are imparted to the work.

Extrusion: The work material is forced to flow through a die opening taking its shape

Drawing: The diameter of a wire or bar is reduced by pulling it through a die opening (bar drawing) or a series of die openings (wire drawing)
