COMPOSITION

METALS NON METALS

Such as iron, steel, Such as ceramics,
aluminum, copper, glass, plastic, rubber,
gold, silver, nickel timber, diamond
etc.. etc..
 METALS
*They are solid with the except of mercury, Hg, a liquid.
*Good conductors of electricity and heat.
*They are shiny
*They are ductile
*They are malleable

NON METALS

*Gas, liquid or solid.

*not malleable or ductile
*non metals are brittle
*poor conductors of both heat and electricity
*tend to gain in chemical reactions.

FERROUS
>All metallic materials having iron as their main constituent are
known as ferrous materials.
>Other materials like carbon, manganese, phosphorous,
sulphur etc. Exist in various proportions in small quantity.

NON FERROUS

>Those metallic materials which do not contain iron as

their main constituents are known as non ferrous
metals
CAST IRON a hard, relatively brittle alloy of iron and carbon that can be readily cast in a
mold and contains a higher proportion of carbon than steel (typically 2.0–4.3
percent).
WROUGHT IRON a tough malleable form of iron suitable for forging or rolling rather than
casting, obtained by puddling pig iron while molten. It is nearly pure but
contains some slag in the form of filaments.
PIG IRON
crude iron as first obtained from a smelting furnace, in the form of oblong
blocks.
STEEL a hard, strong, gray or bluish-gray alloy of iron with carbon and usually other
elements, used extensively as a structural and fabricating material
CARBON STEEL steel in which the main alloying element is carbon, and whose properties
are chiefly dependent on the percentage of carbon present.

ALLOY STEEL In general, alloy steel is steel that is alloyed with a variety of elements in
total amounts between 1.0% and 50% by weight to improve its mechanical
properties.

THERMOPLASTICS NATURAL RUBBER

THERMOSETS SYNTHETIC RUBBER

 PLASTICS
a synthetic material made from a wide range of organic polymers
such as polyethylene, PVC, nylon, etc., that can be molded into
shape while soft and then set into a rigid or slightly elastic form:

THERMOPLASTICS
denoting substances (especially synthetic resins) that become
plastic on heating and harden on cooling, and are able to repeat
these processes.

THERMOSETS

Describes a polymer-based material that is insoluble

and non-melting. 
 WOOD

The hard fibrous material that forms the main substance

of the trunk or branches of a tree or shrub, used for fuel
or timber

ASBESTOS a heat-resistant fibrous silicate mineral that can be

woven into fabrics, and is used in fire-resistant and
insulating materials such as brake linings:

is any of the various hard, brittle, heat-resistant and corrosion

resistant materials made by shaping and then firing an
CERAMICS & inorganic, nonmetallic material, such as clay, at a high
temperature.
CONCRETE
is a composite material composed of fine and coarse
aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement (cement
paste) that hardens (cures) over time.
 RUBBER

a tough elastic polymeric substance made

from the latex of a tropical plant or
synthetically.

NATURAL RUBBER

an elastic material obtained from the

latex sap of trees 

SYNTHETHIC RUBBER

A synthetic rubber is any artificial elastromer

They are polymers synthesized from
petroleum byproducts.
