  1. Types of Materials • Metals: • Strong, ductile • high thermal & electrical conductivity • opaque • Polymers/plastics: Covalent bonding  sharing of e’s • Soft, ductile, low strength, low density • thermal & electrical insulators • Optically translucent or transparent. • Ceramics: ionic bonding (refractory) – compounds of metallic & non-metallic elements (oxides, carbides, nitrides, sulfides) • Brittle, glassy, elastic • non-conducting (insulators)

Structure, Processing, & Properties (d) 30mm (c) (b) (a) 4mm 30mm 30mm • Properties depend on structure ex: hardness vs structure of steel Steel with 0.4 wt% C d) Martensite c) Martensite (tempered at 371 C) b) Fine pearlite a) Spheroidite 6 00 5 00 4 00 Hardness (BHN) 3 00 2 00 100 0.01 0.1 1 10 100 1000 Cooling Rate (ºC/s) • Processing can change structure ex: structure vs cooling rate of steel

  10. Fe+3%Si Fe Magnetization Magnetic Field MAGNETIC • Magnetic Storage: --Recording medium is magnetized by recording head. • Magnetic Permeability vs. Composition: --Adding 3 atomic % Si makes Fe a better recording medium!

  11. OPTICAL polycrystal: low porosity polycrystal: high porosity single crystal • Transmittance: --Aluminum oxide may be transparent, translucent, or opaque depending on the material structure.

  13. Properties From Bonding: Tm Energy r r o r Energy smaller Tm unstretched length larger Tm r o r Eo = “bond energy” • Bond length, r • Melting Temperature, Tm • Bond energy, Eo Tm is larger if Eo is larger.

  14. Properties From Bonding : a length, L o unheated, T 1 D L heated, T 2 r o Energy unstretched length r Larger a Eo Eo Smaller a • Coefficient of thermal expansion, a coeff. thermal expansion D L a = ( T - T ) 2 1 L o • a ~ symmetry at ro a is larger if Eo is smaller.

  16. Brief of Metal

  17. The Periodic Table • Columns: Similar Valence Structure H He Li Be O F Ne Na Mg S Cl Ar K Ca Sc Se Kr Rb Sr Y Te I Xe Cs Ba Po At Rn Fr Ra

  18. Energy and Packing Energy typical neighbor bond length typical neighbor r bond energy • Dense, ordered packing Energy typical neighbor bond length r typical neighbor bond energy • Non dense, random packing Dense, ordered packed structures tend to have lower energies.

  19. Materials and Packing Crystalline materials... • atoms pack in periodic, 3D arrays • typical of: -metals -many ceramics -some polymers crystalline SiO2 Si Oxygen Noncrystalline materials... • atoms have no periodic packing • occurs for: -complex structures -rapid cooling "Amorphous" = Noncrystalline noncrystalline SiO2

  20. Types of Imperfections Line defects • Dislocations Area defects • Grain Boundaries • Vacancy atoms • Interstitial atoms • Substitutional atoms Point defects

  21. Point Defects Vacancy distortion of planes self- interstitial distortion of planes • Vacancies: -vacant atomic sites in a structure. • Self-Interstitials: -"extra" atoms positioned between atomic sites.

  22. Point Defects in Alloys Two outcomes if impurity (B) added to host (A): • Solid solution of B in A (i.e., random dist. of point defects) OR Substitutional solid soln. (e.g., Cu in Ni) Interstitial solid soln. (e.g., C in Fe) • Solid solution of B in A plus a new phase (usually for a larger amount of B) Second phase particle --different composition --often different structure.

  23. Line Defects Dislocations: • are line defects, • slip between crystal planes result when dislocations move, • produce permanent (plastic) deformation. Schematic of Zinc (HCP): • before deformation • after tensile elongation slip steps

  26. Mixed Edge Screw Edge, Screw, and Mixed Dislocations

  27. Dislocations & Crystal Structures • Structure: close-packed planes & directions are preferred. view onto two close-packed planes. close-packed directions close-packed plane (bottom) close-packed plane (top) • Comparison among crystal structures: HCP: few slip systems/directions; FCC: many slip systems/directions; BCC: the most slip systems/directions • Specimens that were tensile tested. Mg (HCP) tensile direction Al (FCC)

  28. Planar Defects in Solids • External Surfaces • The most obvious • Grain Boundary • Different crystal • orientation between • grains • twin boundary (plane) • Essentially a reflection of atom positions across the twin plane. • Stacking faults • For FCC metals an error in ABCABC packing sequence • Ex: ABCABABC • Phase boundary • In multiphase materials

  29. Polycrystalline Materials Grain Boundaries • regions between crystals • transition from lattice of one region to that of the other • slightly disordered • low density in grain boundaries • high mobility • high diffusivity • high chemical reactivity
