3 Questions
What type of deformation results in material permanently deforming?
Plastic deformation and brittle deformation
Which type of deformation involves the material breaking into pieces?
Brittle fracture
What happens to the surface area when plastic or brittle fracture occurs?
It increases
Study Notes
Types of Deformation
- Plastic deformation results in material permanently deforming, meaning it does not return to its original shape after the external force is removed.
Fracture Types
- Brittle fracture involves the material breaking into pieces, often with a sudden release of energy.
Surface Area Changes
- During plastic or brittle fracture, the surface area of the material increases, as new surfaces are created when the material breaks or deforms.
"Understanding Tablet Manufacturing: Deformation and Die Cavity Concepts" - Test your knowledge on the basic principles of tablet manufacturing, focusing on the three types of deformation (elastic, plastic, and brittle fracture) inside the die cavity. Explore how tablets are formed from powder beds and the various forces that come into play during the process.
