WOOD Is a material obtained by harvesting and processing trees (p. 390)
MODIFIED WOOD Is treated wood or a material made from wood mixed with other substances
A CERAMIC Is a solid material obtained by heating inorganic matter containing various compounds, usually oxides.
A METAL Is a material extracted from a mineral ore. Aluminum Chromium Copper Iron Magnesium Nickel Tin Zinc
AN ALLOY Is a mixture of a metal with one or more other substances.
Ferrous vs. Nonferrous Cast Iron Steel Aluminium Alloys Brass Bronze
STEEL HEAT TREATMENTS Are methods of enhancing certain mechanical properties of steel through periods of heating.

PLASTIC & COMPOSITES Workbook p. 205 Textbook p. 397
A PLASTIC Is a material made of polymers, to which other substances may be added to obtain certain desirable properties (p. 397)
Polymer Structure
A THERMOPLASTIC Is a plastic that becomes soft enough when heated to be molded or remolded and that hardens enough when cooled to hold its shape
Thermoplastic Products
A THERMOSETTING PLASTIC Is a plastic that remains permanently hard, even when heated
Thermosetting Products
A COMPOSITE Is formed by combining materials from different categories to obtain a material with enhanced properties.
Carbon Fiber
