​

POLYMER

• The word polymer means
• Poly means many and meros means units, parts.
• Polymer means many parts or many units

​

THERMOPLASTIC POLYMER

• A thermoplastic, or thermosoftening plastic, is a plastic material, polymer, that becomes pliable or moldable above a specific temp and solidifies upon cooling.
• thermoplastics may be reshaped by heating Temperature and solidifies upon cooling.

THERMOSETTING POLYMERS

• Thermosetting polymers have their chains cross linked by�covalent bonds.
• The starting materials are placed into�a mould to form the desired shape.
• The polymer is then heated (or initiated with uv light) and chemical reactions occur to form the cross links between the chains.
• The resulting three dimensional solid structure cannot then be changed.
• Further heating will not cause the polymer to soften,�melt or change shape (unlike thermosoftening polymers).

THERMOSETTING POLYMERS

• The picture below shows a typical structure�for a thermosetting polymer. The red lines�represent the cross links between the chains.

EXAMPLES�

• Epoxy resins - used as coating materials, caulks, manufacture of insulating materials, etc ...
• Phenolic resins - tool handles, billiard balls, sprockets, insulation, etc ...
• Unsaturated polyester resins - manufacture of plastics reinforced fiberglass commonly known as polyester, fillers, etc ...

​

ELASTOMERS

• Elastomer materials are those materials that are made of polymers that are joined by chemical bonds, acquiring a final slightly crosslinked structure.

• Natural rubber - material used in the manufacture of gaskets, shoe heels...
• Polyurethanes - Polyurethanes are used in the textile industry for the manufacture of elastic clothing such as lycra, also used as foam, wheels, etc ...
• Polybutadiene - elastomer material used on the wheels or tires of vehicles, given the extraordinary wear resistance.
• Neoprene - Material used primarily in the manufacture of wetsuits is also used as wire insulation, industrial belts, etc ...
• Silicone - Material used in a wide range of materials and areas due their excellent thermal and chemical resistance, silicones are used in the manufacture of pacifiers, medical prostheses, lubricants, mold, etc ...

​

COMPOSITE

• Composite materials (also called composition materials or shortened to composites) are materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties, that when combined, produce a material with characteristics different from the individual components.

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

Majority of Metals falls in either of the following crystal structure

​

• BCC (Body Centered Cubic)
• FCC (Face Centered Cubic)
• HCP (Hexagonal Close Packed)

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

BCC (Body Centered Cubic)

Examples:α-iron, Mo, W, V, Ta, Cr, Na, K

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

BCC (Body Centered Cubic)

BCC (BODY CENTERED CUBIC)�

In these structure, there are 8 corner atoms and one atom at in the interior i.e. in the centre of the unit cell with no atom on face.

​

Therefore,

Nav = average no. of atoms per unit cell.

Nc= total no. of corner atom in unit cell.

Nf= total no. of face atom in unit cell.

Ni = center or interior atom

​

Nc = 8, Nf=0, Ni=1

​

Nav= (Nc/8)+(Nf/2)+(Ni/1)

=(8/8)+(0/2)+(1/1)

=2

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

• FCC (Face Centered Cubic)

Examples:γ-iron, Cu,Au,Ag,Al,Pb, Ni, Pt

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

• FCC (Face Centered Cubic)

FCC (FACE CENTERED CUBIC)�

In these structure, there are 8 corner atoms and 6 atoms at centre of the face and interior atom

​

Therefore,

Nav = average no. of atoms per unit cell.

Nc= total no. of corner atom in unit cell.

Nf= total no. of face atom in unit cell.

Ni = center or interior atom

​

Nc = 8, Nf=6, Ni=0

​

Nav= (Nc/8)+(Nf/2)+(Ni/1)

=(8/8)+(6/2)+(0/1)

=4

CRYSTAL STRUCTURE IN METALS

• HCP (Hexagonal Close Packed)

​

Examples: Mg,Zn,Be,Cd,Co,Zr,Ti

HCP (HEXAGONAL CLOSE PACKED)�

• For hexagonal structure, the corner atoms are shared by 6 cells (3 from below and 3 from above), face atoms are shared by adjacent 2 cells, and atoms in the interior are shared by only one cell.
• Nav= (Nc/6)+(Nf/2)+(Ni/1)
• For HCP structure , there are 12 corner atoms, 2 atoms at the centers of the above two faces and 3 atoms in the interior of the unit cell.

​

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

• Density
• Density of a substance is its mass per unit volume.
• The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho).
• Mathematically, density is defined as mass divided by volume.

​

​

• where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume.

​

DENSITY

MELTING POINT

• The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
• The melting point of a substance depends (usually slightly) on pressure and is usually specified at standard pressure.
• The melting point of ice at 1 atmosphere of pressure is very close to 0 °C (32 °F, 273.15 K).

SPECIFIC HEAT �

• Energy required to change the temperature of an object by 1degree c.
• The SI unit of heat capacity is joule per kelvin.
• Metals have lower specific heat capacity than plastics.
• Therefore they require less heat to reach a particular temperature than plastics.

THERMAL EXPANSION

• Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature, through heat transfer.
• The degree of expansion divided by the change in temperature is called the material's coefficient of thermal expansion and generally varies with temperature.
• (lf-l0) / l0 = 1 (Tf-To)
• Where, lf and lo are initial and final length.
• Tf and T0 are initial and final temperature.
• 1 is coefficient of thermal expansion.
• Unit is reciprocal temperature i.e. 1/c°

​

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY

• It is the property of a material to conduct heat.
• often denoted k, λ, or κ.
• In SI units, thermal conductivity is measured in watts per meter kelvin (W/(m·K))
• High energy generation rates within electronics or turbines require the use of materials with high thermal conductivity such as copper (see: Copper in heat exchangers), aluminium, and silver.
• On the other hand, materials with low thermal conductance, such as polystyrene and alumina, are use in building construction or in furnaces in an effort to slow the flow of heat, i.e. for insulation purposes

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

• Strain
• Change in dimension per unit original dimension is nothing but strain.
• Stress
• Applied force per unit area is nothing but stress.
• σ= F/A.
• N/mm2.

• Strength
• Ability of a material to resist the externally applied force without breaking or yielding.
• Stiffness
• It is ability of material to resist deformation under stress.
• Elasticity
• It is property of material to regain its original shape after deformation when the external force are removed.
• Steel is more elastic than rubber.
• Plasticity
• It is property of a material which retains the deformation produced under load permanently.

• Ductility
• It is ability of a material enabling it to be drawn in to wire with the application of a tensile force.
• Steel copper aluminium nickel zinc lead tin
• Brittleness
• It is property of a material opposite to ductility.
• It is the property of breaking of material with little permanent distortion.
• Cast iron is a brittle material
• Malleability
• It is special case of ductility which permits materials to be rolled or hammered in to thin sheets.
• Lead soft steel wrought iron copper aluminium.

​

• Toughness
• It is property of material to resist fracture due to high impact load like hammer blow.
• Machinability
• It is property of a material which refers to relative case with which a material can cut.
• Resilience
• It is property of a material to absorb energy and resist shock and impact load.
• Creep
• When a part is subjected to a constant stress at high temperature for long period of time, it will under go slow and permanent deformation called creep.

• Fatigue
• When a material is subjected to a repeated stresses, it fails at a stresses below the yield point stresses. Such type of failure of material is called fatigue.
• Hardness
• Resistance to wear, scratching, deformation and machinability.
• It also mean ability of material to cut another metal.

​

PACKING EFFICIENCY

• The packing efficiency is the fraction of crystal occupied by the atoms.
• It must be always less than 100%. Because it is impossible to pack spheres without empty space between them.
• Packing efficiency is the percentage of total space filled by the particles.
• It is also called as atomic packing factor.
• (Volume occupied by atoms in unit cell/ total volume of unit cell ) x100
