9. -LOW-CARBON STEEL <0.25%C Unresponsive to heat treatment Consist of ferrite and pearlite Relatively low strength Relatively ductile and tough Weldable and machinable Economical amongst all steel -High Strength Low Alloy Steel -Alloying up to 10% -Increase corrosion properties -Higher strength SAE – Society of Automotive engineers AISI- American Iron and Steel Institute ASTM- American Society for Testing and Materials UNS- Unified Numbering System

10. MEDIUM CARBON STEELS – 0.25-0.6 wt%C Heat treated by austenizing, quenching, and then tempering to improve their mechanical properties. Most often utilized in tempered condition with tempered martensite microsture. Low hardenability  can be heat treated only in very thin sections and with rapid quenching

11. High Carbon steels: 0.60-1.4 wt%C – hardest, strongest, least ductile Always used in hardened/tempered condition – wear and indentation resistant Tool/die steels contain high Carbon and Chromium, Vanadium, tungsten and molybdenum  They contain primary Carbides

13. Corrosion resistant  Cr of at least 11 wt% Three classes -Martensitic – heat treated (Q&T), Magnetic -Ferritic – not heat treated, Magnetic -Austenitic – heat treatable (PH), Non- magnetic & most corrosion resistant Stainless Steel

14. CAST IRONS – Carbon > 2.14 wt. %C, usually 3-4.5wt%C Complete Melting 1150 o C-1300 o C Gray, White, Nodular, malleable Silicon > 1%, slower cooling rates during solidification

16. Types of Cast Iron Gray iron graphite flakes weak & brittle under tension stronger under compression excellent vibrational dampening wear resistant Ductile iron add Mg or Ce graphite in nodules not flakes matrix often pearlite - better ductility

17. Types of Cast Iron White iron <1wt% Si so harder but brittle more cementite Malleable iron heat treat at 800-900ºC graphite in rosettes more ductile

Then cast in a mold –most common, cheapest method –gives good reproduction of shapes –weaker products, internal defects –good option for brittle materials or microstructures that are cooling rate sensitive

41. Alternative Energy – Titania Nano-Tubes "This is an amazing material architecture for water photolysis," says Craig Grimes, professor of electrical engineering and materials science and engineering. Referring to some recent finds of his research group (G. K. Mor, K. Shankar, M. Paulose, O. K. Varghese, C. A. Grimes, Enhanced Photocleavage of Water Using Titania Nanotube-Arrays, Nano Letters, vol. 5, pp. 191- 195.2005 ), "Basically we are talking about taking sunlight and putting water on top of this material, and the sunlight turns the water into hydrogen and oxygen. With the highly-ordered titanium nanotube arrays, under UV illumination you have a photoconversion efficiency of 13.1%. Which means, in a nutshell, you get a lot of hydrogen out of the system per photon you put in. If we could successfully shift its bandgap into the visible spectrum we would have a commercially practical means of generating hydrogen by solar energy.

52. Drying : layer size and spacing decrease. (from W.D. Kingery, Introduction to Ceramics, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1960.) Drying and Firing Drying too fast causes sample to warp or crack due to non-uniform shrinkage wet slippartially dry“green” ceramic Firing : --T raised to (900-1400°C) --vitrification: liquid glass forms from clay and flows between SiO 2 particles.

53. Sintering: useful for both clay and non-clay compositions. Procedure: -- produce ceramic and/or glass particles by grinding -- place particles in mold -- press at elevated T to reduce pore size. Aluminum oxide powder: -- sintered at 1700°C for 6 minutes. (from W.D. Kingery, H.K. Bowen, and D.R. Uhlmann, Introduction to Ceramics, 2nd ed., John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1976, p. 483.)

54. Powder Pressing Sintering - powder touches - forms neck & gradually neck thickens –add processing aids to help form neck –little or no plastic deformation Uniaxial compression - compacted in single direction Isostatic (hydrostatic) compression - pressure applied by fluid - powder in flexible envelope Hot pressing - pressure + heat (HIP combines both)

55. Produced in extremely large quantities. Portland cement: -- mix clay and lime bearing materials -- calcinate (heat to 1400°C) -- primary constituents: tri-calcium silicate di-calcium silicate Adding water -- produces a paste which hardens -- hardening occurs due to hydration (chemical reactions with the water). Forming: done usually minutes after hydration begins. Ceramic Fabrication Methods-III GLASS FORMING PARTICULATE FORMING CEMENTATION
