Chapter 11: Metal Alloys Applications and Processing ISSUES TO ADDRESS... How are metal alloys classified and how are they used? What are some of the common fabrication techniques? How do properties vary throughout a piece of material that has been quenched, for example? How can properties be modified by post heat treatment? Chapter 11 - 1 Metals and Metal Alloys Includes steels, aluminum, magnesium, zinc, cast iron, titanium, copper and nickel. An alloy is a metal that contains additions of one or more metals or non- metals in relatively small amounts. Have metallic bonding Properties: Good conductors of heat and electricity High strength Car body panel: composed High stiffness of steel and cast iron High ductility partslow carbon steel engine High density Not transparent to visible light Resistance to fracture Chapter 11 - Aluminum cup Copper electric wires Alloying, heat treatment and hardening Chapter 11 3 - Taxonomy of Metals Metal Alloys Adapted from Ferrous Nonferrous Fig. 11.1, Callister 7e.
