  1. Effects of Toxic Materials • Narcotic Effects- Result from the inhalation of toxic substances. Effects include instability or drowsiness or loss of consciousness or in serious cases death. • Systemic Effects- Result in the fundamental organs (heart, brain, liver & kidneys) being attacked. The effects are irreversible. • Irritants- 1. Contact with mineral oils can cause skin cancer. 2. Frequent contact with water based emulsions can cause dermatitis. 3. Continual contact with cutting fluids can cause the skin to become swollen.

  2. Fatigue & Creep • Fatigue- A component may fail when subjected to a stress well below it’s yield point if it has been subjected to repeated loading and unloading (cycle stressing) at a lower stress. Failure of a component in this manner is known as fatigue failure. • Creep- Factors that effect creep behaviour of metals include the temperature and the nature of the load on the metal.

  3. Examples of Failures

  4. Corrosion • How to minimise corrosion – 1. Avoid having dis-similar metals in contact with each other. 2. Design the component so that moisture isn’t allowed to collect on it’s surface. 3. Protect surfaces with a treatment. (eg painting, galvanising, dip coating) • Sacrificial Protection (anodic/cathodic protection) – Zinc is a good choice to protect steel from corrosion because it is anodic to steel. This means that if there is zinc (anode) in the vicinity of mild steel (cathode) the zinc will corrode not the steel.

  6. Cathodic Protection • • Sacrificial Protection (anodic/cathodic protection) –Zinc is a good choice to protect steel from corrosion because it is anodic to steel. This means that if there is zinc (anode) in the vicinity of mild steel (cathode) the zinc will corrode not the steel. • View Video clip on blog

  7. Adhesives • Joining using adhesives – 1. Surfaces clean and degreased. 2. The joint should be designed so that peel force are minimised. 3. Adhesive are best under tensile. Compression or shear forces. • Safety – Adhesives are hazardous due to their narcotic effects.

  8. Ore Dressing • This means seperating metals from their ores. • Properties which facilitate ore dressing: Mass, Density. Electrostatic & Magnetic. • Methods 1. Gravity Concentration- this is used to separate rocks from ores by shaking and the heavier particles fall to the bottom. 2. Floation-chemical agents are added to the liquified ore and these cause the mineral to float to the top, where it is collected. 3. Magnetic Seperation-the ore is passed over a drum inside which there is a magnet which is stationery. The magnetic material will be carried on further than the non-magnetic and therefore will be seperated. • Hydrometallurgy- uses aqueous solutions called leaches to serperate metals from their ores. • Pyrometalurgy-is based on the use of heat energy by means of a furnace as in smelting the ore.

  10. Covalent Bond • This means the atoms share electrons. • Water H2O

  11. Ionic Bond • When an atom gives away an electron it becomes positive, then it has a charge so it’s called an Ion. • Salt = Na+ & Cl-

  12. Metallic Bonds • Clouds of free electrons hold the atoms together. • It’s these free electrons that allow metals to conduct heat and electricity.

  13. Defects in Metal Crystals • A Line Defect (dislocation) An incomplete line of atoms in the crystal structure. • A Vacency.(point defect) A missing atom in the crystal structure.

  14. Crystalline/Amorphous • Crystalline Regular, repeated patterns • Amorphous Erratic, unrepetitive arrangements.

  15. Disposal of waste plastics • Recycling • Incerination (burning) • Landfill (dumping)

  16. Age Hardening • This means that some alloys of aluminium increase in hardness and strength over a period of a few days when they have been quenched from high temperatures.

  17. Allotropic or polymorpic • This is where materials can exist in two states for example iron is FCC above 183ºC and BCC below this temperature. • Carbon, Diamond & Graphite are the same materials in different physical forms. • Carbon Diamond Graphite

  18. Slip • Slip This occurs more easily in FCC materials because the atoms are packed closer together. This enables one plane of atoms to slide over another easily.

  19. Dendritic Growth • This is used to describe how metals solidify as they grow in a tree like structure.

  20. Factor of Safety • This means that a component is designed to carry a load much greater than that it will ever have to carry in use.
