    Uploaded by

    Ildjohn Carrillo
    The document discusses various ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Ferrous metals include mild steel containing 0.1-0.3% carbon and 99.7-99.9% iron, carbon steel containing 0.6-1.4% carbon and 98.6-99.4% iron, cast iron containing 2-6% carbon and 94-98% iron, and wrought iron containing almost 100% iron. Non-ferrous metals include aluminum alloys, copper, brass which is 65% copper and 35% zinc, silver, lead, tin, magnesium, zinc, and tungsten. The document also lists properties of various metals such as their strength, hardness, density, and common

    Ferrous Metals

    Mild Steel Carbon (0.1-0.3) + Iron (99.7-99.9)


    Carbon steel Carbon (0.6-1.4) + Iron (98.6-99.4)
    Cast Iron carbon (2-6) + Iron (94-98). Very hard but brittle.
    Wrought Iron almost 100% iron.
    Stainless Steel Iron + nickel + chromium.

    Non Ferrous Metals

    Aluminum aluminum alloy + copper + manganese. Soft and Very


    lightweight

    Copper cubic crystalline structure - Conductive


    Brass copper (65) + zinc (35)
    Silver
    Lead heavy and very soft
    Tin soft, pliable, silvery white
    Magnesium silvery white and very light
    Zinc lustrous bluish-white. Brittle and crystalline
    Tungsten resists oxygen attack

    Cast iron cheapest and most abundant engineering material ost abundant and
    cheapest
    Lead highest specific gravity
    Aluminum highest specific heat, lightest metal
    Silver best conductor
    Titanium alloy highest specific strength

    Strongest Natural Metal= Tungsten


    Strongest Alloy = Steel
    Hardest Metal = Chromium
    Most Useful strong metal = Titanium
    Lightest Metal = Micro lattice

    Top 5 strongest:

    5.

    Tungsten
    Steel
    Titanium
    Chromium
    Osmium

    Hardest Form of steel Martensite


    Softest form of steel ferrite (Pure iron)

    Steel = Iron + Carbon


    Stainless Steel = Steel + chromium or (Iron +nickel + chromium)
    Bronze = copper + tin
    Brass = copper + zinc

    Lowest-Highest
    Hardness (Talc Diamond)
    Ductility (lead gold)
