“Without materials, there is NO engineering“
What is Material.?
• The matter from which a thing is or can be made.
• A material is a substance or mixture of substances that constitutes an object. Materials can
be pure or impure, living or non-living matter.
• Materials can be classified based on their physical and chemical properties, or on their
geological origin or biological function.
• Material science is the study of materials and their applications.
UNIT - I
Chapter 1. OVERVIEW OF MATERIALS
8. What are Materials?
• That’s easy! Look around.
• Our clothes are made of materials, our homes are made up of
materials. [ Bricks, Wood, Gate: Iron, Steel – SS, MS, Glass
windows, vinyl sliding, metal silverware, ceramic dishes…]
• Most things are made from many different kinds of materials.
Common type of materials
Metals Ceramics Polymers
Hybrids (Composites)

Which deals with the discovery and design of new materials.
• It all about the raw materials and how they are processed
• That is why we call it materials ENGINEERING
• Minor differences in Raw materials or processing parameters can mean
major changes in the performance of the final material or product.
What is material science.?
10. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 10
Materials Science and Engineering
Materials Science
• The discipline of investigating the relationships that exist between the structures
and properties of materials.
Materials Engineering
• The discipline of designing or engineering the structure of a material to produce a
predetermined set of properties based on established structure-property
correlation.
Four Major Components of Material Science and Engineering:
• Structure of Materials
• Properties of Materials
• Processing of Materials
• Performance of Materials
11. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 11
History of Materials
• Man has been studying materials since before leaving the cave.
• Due to lack of communication, early man spent hundreds of millennia
experimenting with stone tools.
• The first metal tools appeared perhaps only six thousand years ago.
• As our knowledge of materials grows, so does the sophistication of our
tools.
• The more sophisticated our tools, the more sophisticated our
accomplishments.
13. And Remember: Materials “Drive” our Society!
Ages of “Man” we survive based on the materials we control
• Stone Age – naturally occurring materials
• Special rocks, skins, wood
• Bronze Age
• Casting and forging
• Iron Age
• High Temperature furnaces
• Steel Age
• High Strength Alloys
• Non-Ferrous and Polymer Age
• Aluminum, Titanium and Nickel (superalloys) – aerospace
• Silicon – Information
• Plastics and Composites – food preservation, housing, aerospace and higher speeds
• Exotic Materials Age?
• Nano-Material and bio-Materials – they are coming and then …

Doing Materials!
• Engineered Materials are a function of:
• Raw Materials Elemental Control
• Processing History
• Our Role in Engineering Materials then is to understand the application
and specify the appropriate material to do the job as a function of:
• Strength: yield and ultimate
• Ductility, flexibility
• Weight/density
• Working Environment
• Cost: Lifecycle expenses, Environmental impact*
* Economic and Environmental Factors often are the
most important when making the final decision!

19. The Golden Gate Bridge north of San Francisco, California, is one of the most famous and most
beautiful examples of a steel bridge.
“Metals” give impressions of
“structural steels”.
Metallic Materials have :
1) High strength and formability
2) Ductility (plastic deformation)
Most of the bridges and high
rising buildings are
constructed with steels.

33. What are functionally graded materials?
In functionally graded materials (FGM) the property varies from one side of the material (structure) to the
other.
E.g the outer surface may be made hard and abrasion resistant, while the interior could be made tough.
The gradation in function could be obtained by composition changes, microstructure differences (via heat
treatment), etc.

35. The Materials Tetrahedron
Amaterials scientist has to consider four ‘intertwined’concepts, which are schematically shown as the
‘Materials Tetrahedron’.
◾
When a certain performance is expected from a component (and hence the material constituting the
same), the ‘expectation’is put forth as a set of properties.
◾ The material is synthesized and further made into a component by a set of processing methods
(casting, forming, welding, powder metallurgy etc.).
◾The structure (at various lengthscales) is determined by this processing.
◾The structure in turn determines the properties, which will dictate the performance of the
component.
Hence each of these aspects is dependent on the others.
The Materials Tetrahedron
The broad goal of Materials Science &
Engineering is to understand and
‘engineer’this tetrahedron
@ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 35
37. What determines the properties of materials?
Cannot just be the composition!
Few 10s of ppm of Oxygen in Cu can degrade its conductivity (that is why we have Oxygen free high conductivity
copper (OFHC)).
Cannot just be the amount of phases present!
Asmall amount of cementite along grain boundaries can cause the material to have poor impact
toughness.
Cannot just be the distribution of phases!
Dislocations can severely weaken a crystal.
Cannot just be the defect structure in the phases present!
The presence of surface compressive stress toughens glass.
The following factors put together determines the properties of a material:
Composition
Phases present and their distribution
Defect Structure (in the phases and between the phases)
Residual stress (can have multiple origins and one may have to travel across lengthscales).
These factors do NOT act independent of one another (there is an interdependency).

38. What are the four founding pillars of materials science?
Funda Check
Physical
Structure
Electromagnetic
structure
Thermodynamics
Kinetics
The four pillars of Materials Science and Engineering are (a simplified view!!!):
(i) Physical structure→Atomic structure (+ Microstructure)
(ii) Electromagnetic Structure→ Electronic and Magnetic structure
(iii) Thermodynamics
(iv) Kinetics
If one gains understanding of these four pillars, one can comprehend most aspects of Material behaviour
and engineer materials for applications.
The subject of Materials Engineering can be envisaged as a confluence of Physics, Chemistry, Biology,
Mechanical Engineering, etc.

39. There are basically three strategies* available for the use of materials for specific
purposes.
Design a material with better properties
(e.g. materials with better creep resistance at high temperatures).
Protect the material with surface coatings, cooling
etc. (e.g. paint the material to avoid corrosion).
Use ‘sacrificial materials’to protect the key
component (e.g. use of sacrificial anodes to prevent
corrosion).
The obvious has not been stated above i.e. use more “quantity” of material.
Also, we could do a better design of the component/mechanism/machine/… itself (so that
the “load” on the material is not as much) .
* Note: in a given situation, only one/some of these strategies may work.
Material usage strategies

40. Examples of smart materials, structures and ‘components’(/organs) are abound in the biological world. Many of
the ‘stuff’found in the biological world have amazing design strategies, some of which we are just able to
copy (biomimetic materials) and further use the ‘inspiration’to design newer materials (biognostic materials).
Some of the important qualities, which a smart material can have are listed below.
Self reporting: lets us know of changes occurring in the material e.g. damage accumulation can lead to
magnetization.
Responsive: responds to the environment and alters its properties (e.g. photochromatic lenses which darken on
exposure to sun light).
Responsive and self healing: responds to the environment or changes within the material and can heal any
deleterious changes (e.g. if cracks grow material is released to heal the cracks).
Self cleaning: this is like the ‘gecko effect’, where the surface cleans itself.
Self lubricating: an old concept, wherein the material puts up a surface layer which acts like a lubricant (e.g.
Al-graphite composites, wherein the graphite acts like a lubricant).
Multi-functional: the material performs multiple roles in a single structure or component. E.g.: (i) the cover of
a mobile can be its power cell too, (ii) an antenna made of shape memory alloy can be transported in collapsed
form and extends itself on heating on-site (envisaged for space applications), (iii) ferroelectric and
ferromagnetic.

In general, What is Testing.?
• In general, testing is to finding out how well something works. In terms of human beings,
testing tells what level of knowledge or skill has been acquired.
• In computer hardware and software development, testing is used at key checkpoints in the
overall process to determine whether objectives are being met.
Example: Assessment test, Blood test, Eye test……..
53. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 53
What is Material Testing.?
• Materials testing : Measurement of the characteristics and behaviour of such substances as
metals, ceramics, or plastics under various conditions.
• The data thus obtained can be used in specifying the suitability of materials for various
applications—e.g., building or aircraft construction, machinery, or packaging.
Why is it Important?
• Materials testing is a respected and established technique which is used to ascertain both
the physical and mechanical properties of raw materials and components.
• It can be used to examine almost anything from human hair to steel, ceramics or composite
materials.
54. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 54
Why Materials Testing is performed?
• Materials Testing is performed for a variety of reasons and can provide a
wealth of information about the tested materials, prototypes or product
samples.
• The data collected during testing and the final test results can be very useful
to engineers, designers, production managers and others.
Here are some of the reasons material testing is important:
• Meeting requirements of regulatory agencies
• Selecting appropriate materials and treatments for an application
• Evaluating product design or improvement specifications
• Verifying a production process
55. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 55
Why are metals tested?
• Ensure quality
• Test Properties
• Prevent failure in use
• Make informed choices in using materials
• Factor of safety : Is the ration comparing the actual stress on a material and
the safe useable stress.
56. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 56
Materials testing breaks down into FIVE major categories
Mechanical testing;
Testing for thermal properties;
Testing for electrical properties;
Testing for resistance to corrosion, radiation, and biological deterioration; &
Nondestructive testing.
Standard test methods have been established by such national and international
bodies as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), with headquarters in
Geneva, and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), Philadelphia.

Mechanical Tests
• Mechanical properties are obtained by mechanical testing.
• Mechanical testing is used for developing design data, maintaining quality control,
assisting in alloy development programs and providing data in failure analysis.
• Mechanical testing is usually destructive and requires test specimens of the material to be
machined or cut to the specific shape required by the test method.
• Measurement of the characteristics and behavior of such substances as metals, ceramics,
or plastics under various conditions. The data thus obtained can be used in specifying the
suitability of materials for various applications.
Ex.: building or aircraft construction, machinery, or packing.

Classification of Mechanical Tests
• Destructive tests : In this type of testing, the component or specimen
to be tested is destroyed and cannot be reused.
Ex: Tensile test, Impact test, Bend test, Fatigue test, Torsion test, Creep
test, etc.,
• Non-destructive tests (NDT) : In this type of testing, the component
or specimen to be tested is not destroyed and can be reused after the
test.
Ex: Radiography, Ultrasonic inspection, etc.,

Introduction to Roles & Responsibilities of Materials Engineer
Some of Materials Engineer responsibilities are :
1) Design Process:
a) Drawing the basic design.
b) Proper selection of materials :
Selection according to different parameters such as :
Mechanical loads,
Wear,
Electrical insulation,
Thermal properties
Availability & cost.
This includes: Selection of the proper manufacturing processes,
2) Proper choice (selecting) of substitute (alternative) materials when needed.
3) Contributing and evaluating materials tests results,
4) Studying and composing materials data sheets before placing an order,
5) Enhancing the performance of the materials by carrying out research activities.
64. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 64
Introduction to Materials Selection
• One of the most challenging task of materials engineer is the proper selection of the material for a particular
job, e.g., a particular component of a machine or structure.
• An engineer must be in a position to choose the optimum combination of properties in a material at the
lowest possible cost without compromising the quality.
Factors affecting the selection of materials:
(i) Component shape:
The shape and size of a component has great effect on the choice of the processing unit which
ultimately effects the choice of the material. To make it more clear, we consider an example, let the best
possible production method is selected, under given conditions, it is die casting, obviously, now the choice of
the material becomes limited, i.e. one can only choose materials with lower melting points, e.g. aluminium,
zinc, magnesium and thermoplastics.
(ii) Dimensional tolerance:
There are some materials which can be finished to close tolerance while others cannot. Obviously, the
required dimensional tolerance for finished components will, influence the choice of materials.
(iii) Mechanical properties:
To select a suitable material for specific conditions, all mechanical properties, e.g., toughness,
hardness, strength, etc. guide us.
65. Introduction to Materials Selection
(iv) Fabrication (Manufacturing) requirements:
• Method of processing of the material also affects the properties of a component, e.g., forged components can
be stronger than the casted components. Different types of working processes may also give different types of
fibre structure. However, investment casting can provide precise dimensions at low cost in comparison to
machine operations.
Note: fabrication requirements are: castability, i.e., ease in casting a material, weldability-ease in welding the
material, machinability-ease to machine a material, formability-ease to form a material, hardenability etc.
(v) Service requirements:
Service requirements are :
• dimensional stability,
• strength,
• toughness,
• heat resistance,
• corrosion resistance,
• fatigue and creep resistance,
• electrical and thermal conductivity etc.
@ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 62
66. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 66
(vi) Cost :
(a) Cost of the material:
• In most of the cases, the cost of raw material accounts about 50 % of the finished cost. Obviously, the cost of
the material is a major factor which influences the choice of the material or process. We must note that the
use of cheaper material will not always reduce the final cost of the component or product. Use of cheaper
material may be associated with higher processing cost due to large number of operations to be performed
and also more scrap. We can easily see that this sometimes makes the overall cost more than that of
expensive raw material in combination with low processing cost due to lesser number of operations and
lesser scrap.
(b) Cost of processing:
• In most of the industries, the processing cost (labour cost) and other costs such as overhead costs account for
about 50% of the production cost. Overhead cost in automatic industries is much more than the other costs.
If one can somehow reduce all such costs, the total production cost will automatically reduce.
(vii) Availability of the material:
• We may find that sometimes the availability of the material becomes a governing factor. When the desired
material supply is limited, then a costly material which is available in ample quantity may be chosen.
(viii) Environment
• The effect that the service environment has on the part; The effect the part has on the environment; The
effect that processing has on the environment
67. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 67
Procedure for materials selection
• The selection of an appropriate material and its subsequent conversion into a useful
product with desired shape and properties can be a rather complex process. Nearly every
engineered item goes through a sequence of activities that includes:
Design material selection process selection production evaluation and possible
redesign or modification
68. Factors affecting selection of materials
The selection of a specific material for a particular use is a very complex process.
However, one can simplify the choice if the details about:
(i) operating parameters,
(ii) manufacturing processes,
(iii) functional requirements
(iv) cost considerations are known.
@ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 68
69. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 69
Selection of Materials according to their Mechanical Properties:
Mechanical properties describe the behavior of material in terms of deformation and resistance
to deformation under specific mechanical loading condition. These properties are significant as
they describe the load bearing capacity of structure. Elastic modulus, strength, hardness,
toughness, ductility, malleability are some of the common mechanical properties of engineering
materials:
1. Selection for Static Strength : Static strength can be defined as: the ability to resist a short-
term steady load at moderate temperatures without breaking or crushing or suffering
excessive deformations.
2. Selection for stiffness : the ability of a material to resist deflection when loaded.
3. Selection for fatigue resistance : The failure of a component when subject to fluctuating
loads is as a result of cracks which tend to start at some discontinuity in the material and
grow until failure occurs.
4. Selection for toughness : can be defined as the resistance offered by a material to fracture. A
tough material is resistant to crack propagation.
70. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 70
5. Selection for creep and temperature resistance : The creep resistance of a metal can be
improved by incorporating a fine dispersion of particles to impede the movement of dislocations.
6. Selection for corrosion resistance :
7.Selection for wear resistance : is the progressive loss of material from surfaces as a result of
contact with other surfaces. It can occur as a result of sliding or rolling contact between surfaces
or from the movement of fluids containing particles over surfaces.
Mechanism of wear
1. Adhesive wear
2. Abrasive wear
3. Corrosive wear
4. Surface fatigue
8. Selection for thermal properties
9. Selection for electrical properties
10. Selection for magnetic properties

Selection of Material
There are many thousands of different engineering materials available today. But they
can be placed into one or other of the following categories:
1. Metals, 2. Polymers, 3. Ceramics and inorganic glasses, 4. Composites.
• All materials exhibit many different properties and qualities. The properties of
material provide a basic for predicting its behavior under various conditions.
• An engineer must have wide knowledge of materials and their properties so that he
may select a suitable material for his product.
Metals – Strong, Heat Transfer, Deformable
Ceramics – Hard but Brittle, Insulation
Polymers – Light, Flexible, Compressible
Composites – Strength of Fiber & Flexibility of Polymer

Factors to be considered for the selection of materials
Following factors should be considered:
1. Availability
2. Cost
3. Mechanical Properties :
4. Manufacturing consideration :
1. Availability : The Material should be readily available in market in large enough quantities
to meet the requirement.
2. Cost : For every application, there is limiting cost beyond which the designer cannot go.
When the limit exceeded the designer has to consider an alternative material.
In cost analysis, there are two factors namely cost of material and the cost of
processing the material into finished goods.
It is likely that the cost of material might be low but the processing may involve costly
machining operations.

A simplistic but idealized working definition…
Standard - a document, developed and used by consensus of the
stakeholders, which describes how a product is to be obtained or used.
• document - can be electronic or paper
• stakeholders – includes anyone with an interest without restriction
• product - can include hardware, software, analysis result, test result, protocol,
definition, etc.
• obtained or used - can mean designed, built, procured, calculated,
tested, etc.
What is a Standard?
116. Best practices (things that have worked well)
Lessons learned (things that haven’t worked well)
Recent research results
• Able to stimulate further research in related areas
Standards cannot be created for every situation
Sometimes necessary in real practice for a subject matter expert
to extrapolate from one or more existing standards and design
principles to solve a specific need

What Does (and Doesn’t) Go Into a Standard?
117. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 117
Benefit of Standards
“The engine of national and global commerce is driven by standards.”
Good standards – those with credibility, integrity, and marketplace acceptance – reduce
procurement costs, improve products, expand markets, and/or lower risk
Standards do this by…
Reducing duplication of effort or overlap and combining resources
Bridging of technology gaps and transferring technology
Reducing conflict in regulations
Facilitating commerce
Stabilizing existing markets and allowing development of new markets
Protecting from litigation
…and more…

Practicing Engineers Need Standards
Why?
To Produce Their Products Efficiently
• Deliverable products must be designed and built - they make use of procured items and
must themselves be procured
• Each of these phases, procurement especially, requires specification
• Effective specification requires standards

• Purpose of standards
• Types of standards
• Sources of standards
• Standards Development Processes

• Most Important standards for their discipline
• Proper use of those standards
What You Need To Know
120. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 120
ASTM currently recognizes five specific types:
1. Specification (in the sense of a procurement document)
2. Test Method (produces a test result)
3. Terminology (or definitions)
4. Practice (a protocol that doesn’t produce a test result)
5. Guide (informational description of a number of options)
Types of Standards

121. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 121
“The good thing about standards is that there are many of them”
• A product should be designed to comply with industry standards (such as the requirements of
dimensional, physical, mechanical, electrical properties).
• While designing to standards does not ensure a safe product, standards do tend to create safer
products.
• Advertise and market wisely. Occasionally, a company creates potential product misuse
situations though its advertisements, marketing materials, and sales personnel. Product liability
loss prevention is not the sole responsibility of the product designer or manufacturer;
misrepresentation and exaggeration in advertisements and marketing materials may also be
involved.
• The infomercial has underscored the importance of testing.
Standards and Testing
122. @ D. Manivannan, AP/Mech, 6118 - PSVCET. 122
• According to a product’s nature, specifications and international regulations, various types of tests such as
Safety tests
Life tests (reliability)
Functional tests, and
Packaging tests
must be preformed to assure conformance and quality.
• There are many different types of products and their associated tests.
• Chemical Testing
• Construction Materials
• Electrical and Electronic Products
• Food
• Textiles and Garments
• Toys and Children's Products, etc.
Product Testing
123. • Manufacturers in gaining access to key international markets such as North America, Europe, Japan and
Australia, their products must be in compliance with international regulations and standards. You may
have seen some of the following marks/labels.
• Acquiring these certifications can be expensive and time-consuming.
• At the beginning of 1992, the European
Single Market was created. A series of
Directives are intended to provide controls
on product design, with the principal
objective being to provide “common’”
standards for product safety requirements
across the European Community.

Testing Vs Inspection
• Testing is the physical performance of an operation series aimed at
providing quantitate data regarding the properties of a material. It
provides the information about the quality of material.
• Inspection is the observance of a material to determine the presence
or absence of a desired one. It aimed about the controlling the quality
of materials by establishing criteria of acceptance or rejection.
