Classification Of Materials• Variety of classification basis available to

distinguish different materials• Materials can be classified according to their

atomic structures, chemical combinations, properties acquired, functions offered by them etc.

Metals• Materials in this group are composed of one or more

metallic elements (such as iron, aluminum, copper, titanium, gold, and nickel), and often also nonmetallic elements (for example, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen) in relatively small amounts

• Atoms in metals and their alloys are arranged in a very orderly manner and in comparison to the ceramics and polymers, are relatively dense

• These materials are relatively stiff and strong yet are ductile (i.e., capable of large amounts of deformation without fracture), and are resistant to fracture

• Metallic materials have large numbers of non-localized electrons (Conductors of Heat & Electricity; Transparent to visible light; Lustrous appearance; Magnetic properties)

Page 5: Engineering Materials

Metals• Metallic Bonding• The free electrons

shield the positively charged ion cores from mutually repulsive electrostatic forces, which they would otherwise exert upon one another

• Free electrons act as a “glue” to hold the ion cores together

Page 6: Engineering Materials

Metals• Bonding may be weak or strong• Energies range from 68 kJ/mol for mercury to

850 kJ/mol for tungsten• Their Melting Points range from -390C (Hg) and

34100C (W)• General features of metals: • Good conductors of heat and electricity • Ductility (drawn into wires)• Malleability (deformed or hammered into sheets)• Lustrous (Shiny)• Toughness

Ceramics• Ceramics are compounds between metallic and

nonmetallic elements• They are most frequently Oxides, Nitrides, and

Carbides (Eg. Aluminum oxide or Alumina- Al2O3, Silicon dioxide or Silica- SiO2), Silicon carbide- SiC, Silicon nitride- Si3N4)

• Traditional ceramics - those composed of clay minerals (i.e. porcelain), as well as cement, and glass

Page 9: Engineering Materials

Ceramics• General features of Ceramics:• Ceramic materials are relatively stiff and strong—

stiffnesses and strengths are comparable to those of the metals• Ceramics are typically very hard.• They are extremely brittle (lack ductility), and are highly

susceptible to fracture• These materials are typically insulative to the passage of

heat and electricity• With regard to optical characteristics, ceramics may be

transparent, translucent, or opaque• Some of the oxide ceramics (e.g., Fe3O4) exhibit magnetic

behavior.

Polymers• Polymers include the familiar plastic and rubber

materials• Many of them are organic compounds that are

chemically based on carbon, hydrogen, and other nonmetallic elements (viz. O, N, and Si)

• They have very large molecular structures- (polyethylene (PE), nylon, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polycarbonate (PC), polystyrene (PS), and silicone rubber

Page 12: Engineering Materials

Polymers• General features of polymers:• These materials typically have low densities• They are not as stiff nor as strong as metals and ceramics• On the basis of their low densities, many times their

stiffnesses and strengths on a per mass basis are comparable to the metals and ceramics• Many of the polymers are extremely ductile and pliable (i.e.,

plastic), which means they are easily formed into complex shapes• They are relatively inert chemically and unreactive in a large

number of environments• Tendency to soften and/or decompose at modest

temperatures, which, in some instances, limits their use• They have low electrical conductivities and are nonmagnetic

Polymeric Materials

Page 14: Engineering Materials

Composites• A composite is composed of two (or more) individual materials

(metals, ceramics, and polymers)• The design goal of a composite is to achieve a combination of

properties that is not displayed by any single material, and also to incorporate the best characteristics of each of the component materials

• Some naturally-occurring materials are also considered to be composites - for example, wood and bone

• One of the most common and familiar composites is fiberglass, in which small glass fibers are embedded within a polymeric material (normally an epoxy or polyester)

• The glass fibers are relatively:• strong and stiff (but also brittle), whereas the polymer is ductile (but

also weak and flexible). Thus, the resulting fiberglass is relatively stiff, strong, flexible, and ductile. In addition, it has a low density
