1. ISSUES TO ADDRESS... How are metal alloys classified and how are they used? How do we classify ceramics? What are some applications for ceramics? 1 CHAPTER 13: TYPES AND APPLICATONS OF MATERIALS

5. 5 Properties: --T melt for glass is moderate, but large for other ceramics. --Small toughness, ductility; large moduli & creep resist. Applications: --High T, wear resistant, novel uses from charge neutrality. Fabrication --some glasses can be easily formed --other ceramics can not be formed or cast. Adapted from Fig. 13.1 and discussion in Section 13.2-6, Callister 6e. TAXONOMY OF CERAMICS

6. Need a material to use in high temperature furnaces. Consider Silica (SiO 2 ) - Alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) system. Phase diagram shows: mullite, alumina, and crystobalite (made up of SiO 2 ) tetrahedra as candidate refractories. 6 Adapted from Fig. 12.27, Callister 6e. (Fig. 12.27 is adapted from F.J. Klug and R.H. Doremus, "Alumina Silica Phase Diagram in the Mullite Region", J. American Ceramic Society 70(10), p. 758, 1987.) APPLICATION: REFRACTORIES

7. Die blanks: --Need wear resistant properties! 7 Die surface: --4  m polycrystalline diamond particles that are sintered on to a cemented tungsten carbide substrate. --polycrystalline diamond helps control fracture and gives uniform hardness in all directions.

8. 8 Tools: --for grinding glass, tungsten, carbide, ceramics --for cutting Si wafers --for oil drilling blades oil drill bits Solutions: --manufactured single crystal or polycrystalline diamonds in a metal or resin matrix. --optional coatings (e.g., Ti to help diamonds bond to a Co matrix via alloying) --polycrystalline diamonds resharpen by microfracturing along crystalline planes. coated single crystal diamonds polycrystalline diamonds in a resin matrix.

9. 9 Ex: Oxygen sensor: ZrO 2 Principle: Make diffusion of ions fast for rapid response. Approach: Add Ca impurity to: --increase O 2- vacancies --increase O 2- diffusion Operation: -- voltage difference produced when O 2- ions diffuse between external and references gases. APPLICATION: SENSORS

10. Steels: increase TS, hardness (and cost) by adding -C (low alloy steels) -Cr, V, Ni, Mo, W (high alloy steels) -Ductility usually decreases w/ additions Nonferrous: -Cu, Al, Ti, Mg Refractory, and noble metals Basic categories of ceramics: -Glasses -Clay products -Refactories -Cements -Advanced ceramics 10 SUMMARY
