This document discusses alloys and their properties. It defines an alloy as a mixture of two or more metals or a metal and non-metal. Common alloys include steel, duralumin, stainless steel, bronze, and brass. Alloys have improved properties compared to pure metals, such as increased strength, improved corrosion resistance, and better appearance. The document provides examples of common alloys, their compositions, properties, and uses.
This presentation will discuss about different types of materials. In part I, we will see what are metals and non-metals, their structure, their uses etc. Iron is discussed in detail here.

Sheets Metal used in Manufacturing ProcessRishabh Singh
Presentaion is on how sheets metal are used in manufacturing process.
You get to know about how many types of steels are there and what are there types.
More than than it contains information about metals used in metallurgy.
Metals and Non-Metals form a fundamental classification of elements, playing a pivotal role in understanding the diverse world of chemistry. In Class 10, students delve into the distinct characteristics, properties, and reactions that define these two broad categories. Metals, with their conductivity and malleability, stand in stark contrast to the non-metals, which exhibit varying physical and chemical traits. These notes provide a concise exploration of the essential attributes of metals and non-metals, offering a foundational understanding for students to navigate the complexities of chemical interactions and classifications in the realm of science.

Dentists should be aware of the corrosion properties and biocompatibility of any alloy they use.
In the absence of detailed data on corrosion for an alloy, use of high-noble and noble alloys of single-phase microstructure will minimize biologic risk.
Patients with Ni allergy may have sensitivity for cobalt. Such patients should be tested to rule out allergy before giving Co-Cr restoration.
2. INTRODUCTION
o Pure metals usually have high densities; high melting and boiling points are good
conductors of heat and electricity, shiny, malleable and ductile.
o Pure metals are composed of the same type of atoms and are of the same size.
o In the solid state, the atoms are closely packed in an orderly manner.
o This arrangement of atoms in metals gives the metals their ductile and malleable
properties when a force is applied.
o Ductility of metals
The layers of atoms can slide over one another when a force is applied. Therefore,
metals are ductile or can be stretched.
o Malleability of metals
There are some imperfections in the orderly arrangement of atoms. When a metal is
knocked, atoms slide into new positions. Therefore, metals are malleable (can be
hammered into different shapes without cracking) or can be shape
o Alloys may contain mixtures of metals or mixture of metals and non metals.
o Foreign atoms added may be larger or smaller than the atoms of the pure metal.
Arrangement of atom in alloy
o The presences of foreign atoms that are of different sizes disturb the orderly
arrangement of metal atoms.
o This reduces the layers of atoms from slidingover one another. Thus, an alloy is stronger
and harder than its pure metal.
4. WHAT ARE ALLOYS?
1.Pure metal are usually too soft for most uses. They also have a low
r e s i s t a n c e t o corrosion. They rush and tarnish easily.
2.To improve the physical properties of metal, a small amount of another
e l e m e n t (usually metal) is added to form another alloy.
3.An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals (something non -metal) in a
s p e c i f i c proportion. For example
a) Bronze (90% of copper and 10% of tin)
b) b.Steel (99% of iron and 1% of carbon)
4.The purposes of making alloys include the following:
a)Increase the strength
i. Pure iron is soft and vary malleable. When a small amount of carbon is added to iron, an
alloy, steal is formed. The more carbon is added, the stronger the steel becomes.
ii. ii.Pure aluminium is light but not strong. With a small amount of
copper andmagnesium are added to aluminium , a strong, light and
d u r a b l e a l l o y c a l l duralumin is produced.
b)Improving the resistance to corrosion
i. Iron rust easily but stainless steel which contains 80.6% of iron, 0.4% of carbon, 1 8 %
of chromium and 1% of nickel does not rush. These properties
m a k e stainless steel suitable for making surgical instrument and cutlery.
ii. Pure copper tarnish easily. When zinc (30%) is added, the yellow alloy which isknown as
brass develops a high resistance to corrosion
c)Enhancing the appearance
i. Pewter, an alloy of tin (97%), antimony and copper is not only hard but also hasa
more beautiful white silvery appearance.
ii. When copper is mixed with nickel to form cupronickel, an alloy
t h a t h a s a n attractive silvery, bright appearance is formed which is
suitable for makingcoins

6. DISCUSSION
An alloy is a mixture or metallic solid solution composed of two or more elements. Complete
solid solution alloys give single solid phase microstructure, while partial solutions give two or
more phases that may or may not be homogeneous in distribution, depending on thermal (heat
treatment) history. Alloys usually have different properties from those of the component
elements.
Alloy constituents are usually measured by mass. Alloys are usually classified as substitution or
interstitial alloys, depending on the atomic arrangement that forms the alloy. They can be
further classified as homogeneous, consisting of a single phase, heterogeneous, consisting of
two or more phases, or intermetallic, where there is no distinct boundary between phases.
7. CONCLUSIONS
We must appreciate these various synthetic industrial materials. One of the ways is bydoing
continuous research and development (R&D) to produce better materials used toimprove our
standard of living. As we live in a changing world, our society is gettingmore complex. New
materials are required to overcome new challenges and problems weface in our daily lives.
Synthetic materials are developed constantly due to the limitationand shortage of natural
materials. New technological developments are used by scientiststo make new discoveries.
New materials for clothing, shelter, tools and communication to improve our dailylife are
developed continuously for the well-being of mankind. New needs and new problem will
stimulate the development of new synthetic materials. For example, the newuse of plastic
composite material will replace metal in the making of a stronger andlighter car body. This will
save fuel and improve speed. Plastic composite materials mayone day used to make organs for
organ transplant in human bodies. This will becomenecessity with the shortage of human organ
donors.
The understanding of the interaction between different chemicals is important for both the
development of new synthetic materials and the disposal of such syntheticmaterials as waste. A
responsible and systemic method of handling the waste of syntheticmaterials and their by-
product is important to prevent environmental pollution. The recycling and development of
environmental friendly synthetic material should beenforced.
