INTRODUCTION
Material : substance of which something is composed or made.
INTRODUCTION
Material Science : A scientific discipline which is primarily concerned with the search for basic knowledge about internal structure, properties and processing materials. Investigating relationships that exist between the structure and properties of materials
INTRODUCTION
Material Engineering : An engineering discipline which is concerned with the use of fundamental and applied knowledge of materials so that they can be converted into products needed or desired by society.
Is, on the basis of these structure-property correlation, designing or engineering the structure of a material to produce a pre-determined set of properties
INTRODUCTION

Resultant knowledge of the structure, properties, processing and performance of engineering materials Material Science and Engineering
Structure of materials:
the arrangement of its internal components. subatomic structure involves electrons within the individual atoms and interaction with their nuclei. on atomic level, structure encompasses the organization of atoms or molecules relative to one another.
INTRODUCTION
Properties of materials:
A property is a material trait in terms of the kind and magnitude of response to a specific imposed stimulus. definitions of properties are made independent of material shape and size.
Properties of solid materials may be grouped into six different categories: mechanical, electrical, thermal, magnetic, optical and deteriorative. (i) Mechanical properties relate deformation to an applied load or force. Examples include elastic modulus and strength. (ii) Electrical properties, such as electrical conductivity and dielectric constant, the stimulus are an electric field. (iii) Thermal properties can be represented in terms of heat capacity and thermal conductivity. (iv) Magnetic properties demonstrate the response of a material to the application of a magnetic field. (v) Optical properties, such as index of refraction, the stimulus is electromagnetic and light radiation. (vi) Deteriorative characteristics relate to the chemical reactivity of material
INTRODUCTION
The four components of the discipline of materials science and engineering and their linear interrelationship. Processing Structure Properties Performance
MATERIAL SELECTION
3 criteria on which the final decision is normally based: (i) dictate the properties required of the material (ii) consider of any deterioration of material properties that may occur during service operation (iii) economics
Metals
Polymers
Ceramics
Composites
METALS
METALS
combinations of metallic elements some properties:
good electrical thermal conductivity high strength high stiffness ductile
METALS
Two categories:
1. Pure metals elements which come from a particular are of the periodic table. Ex: iron, copper and aluminum 2. Metal alloys contain more than one metallic element. Their properties can be changed by changing the elements present in the alloy. Ex: stainless steel, nickel, chromium.
POLYMERS
POLYMERS
has a repeating structure in large chainlike molecules based on a carbon backbone. based on carbon, hydrogen and other nonmetallic elements some properties: low densities thermal and electrical insulators do not have high strengths flexible lightweight corrosion resistant easy to process at low temperatures generally inexpensive
POLYMER
PLASTICS
ELASTOMERS
THERMOPLASTICS
THERMOSETS
Some applications of thermosets: melamine (plate) electrical plugs and switches saucepan handles
Some applications of elastomer automobile tires natural rubber
CERAMICS
CERAMICS
inorganic materials (metallic & nonmetallic elements) oxides, nitrides, and carbides crystalline, non-crystalline or a mixture of both Properties at RT:
High melting point High chemical stabilities High hardness High temperature strength Brittle (lack ductility) Poor electrical & thermal conductor Resistance to corrosion
COMPOSITES
COMPOSITES
combination of two or more materials a matrix phase + a reinforcing phase Designed to ensure a combination of the best properties of each component material Examples include polymer/ceramic and metal/ceramic composites.
Advantages of composites:
High strength to weight ratio (low density high tensile strength) High creep resistance High tensile strength at elevated temperatures High toughness
Types of composite:
Particle-reinforced composites: Particles used for reinforcing include ceramics and glasses such as small mineral particles, metal particles such as aluminum, and amorphous materials, including polymers and carbon black. An example of particle reinforced composites is an automobile tire which has carbon black particles in a matrix of polyisobutylene elastomeric polymer
Fiber-reinforced composites
Reinforcing fibers can be made of metals, ceramics, glasses, or polymers that have been turned into graphite & known as carbon fibers. Fibers are difficult to process into composites, making fiber-reinforced composites relatively expensive. Used in sports equipment, such as a time-trial racing bicycle frame which consists of carbon fibers in a thermoset polymer matrix. Body parts of race cars and some automobiles are composites made of glass fibers (or fiberglass) in a thermoset matrix.
Laminar
composed of two-dimensional sheets or panels that have a preferred high strength direction such as is found in wood and continuous and aligned fiber-reinforced plastics. One example of a relatively complex structure is modern ski and another example is plywood.
Sandwich Panels:
Consist of two strong outer sheets which are called face sheets and may be made of aluminum alloys, fiber reinforced plastics, titanium alloys, steel. Sandwich panels can be used in variety of applications which include roofs, floors, walls of buildings and in aircraft, for wings, fuselage and tailplane skins
ADVANCED MATERIAL
ADVANCED MATERIALS
SEMICONDUCTOR
BIOMATERIALS
SMART MATERIAL
NANOENGINEERED MATERIAL
Mean a device or product that operates or functions using relatively intricate and sophisticated principles. They maybe of all materials types and expensive
SEMICONDUCTORS
SEMICONDUCTORS
Electrical properties that are intermediate between the electrical conductors and insulators. The electrical characteristic of these materials are extremely sensitive to the presence of minute concentrations of impurity atoms. Conductivity increasing with temperature
BIOMATERIALS
BIOMATERIALS
Components implanted into the human body for replacement of diseased or damaged body parts. Must not produce toxic substances and must be compatible with body tissues. All of above materials metals, ceramics, polymers, composites and semiconductors may be used as biomaterials. For example, some of the biomaterials that are utilized in artificial hip replacements.
