BasicClassificationsandEngineeringMaterials
Solidmaterialshavebeenconvenientlygroupedintothreebasicclassifications:metals,ceramicsandpolymers.Thisschemeisbasedprimarilyonchemicalmakeupandatomicstructure,andmostmaterialsfallintoonedistinctgroupingoranother,althoughtherearesomeintermediates.Inaddition,therearethreeothergroupsofimportantengineeringmaterials—composites,semiconductor,andbiomaterials.Compositesconsistofcombinationsoftwoormoredifferentmaterials,whereassemiconductorsareutilizedbecauseoftheirunusualelectricalcharacteristics;biomaterialsareimplantedintothehumanbody.Abriefexplanationofthematerialtypesandrepresentativecharacteristicsisofferednext.
Metals:Metallicmaterialsarenormallycombinationsofmetallicelements.Theyhavelargenumbersofnonlocalizedelectrons;thatis,theseelectronsarenotboundtoparticularatoms.Manypropertiesofmetalsaredirectlyattributabletotheseelectrons.Metalsareextremelygoodconductorsofelectricityandheat,andarenottransparenttovisiblelight:apolishedmetalsurfacehasalustrousappearance.Furthermore,metalsarequitestrong,yetdeformable,whichaccountsfortheirextensiveuseinstructuralapplications.
Ceramics:Ceramicsarecompoundsbetweenmetallicandnonmetallicelements:theyaremostfrequentlyoxides,nitrides,andcarbides.Thewide
rangeofmaterialsthatfallswithinthisclassificationincludesceramicsthatarecomposedofclayminerals,cement,andglass.Thesematerialsaretypicallyinsulativetothepassageofelectricityandheat,andaremoreresistanttohightemperaturesandharshenvironmentsthanmetalsandpolymers.Withregardtomechanicalbehavior,ceramicsarehardbutverybrittle.
Polymers:Polymersincludethefamiliarplasticandrubbermaterials.Manyofthemareorganiccompoundsthatarechemicallybasedoncarbon,hydrogen,andothernonmetallicelements;furthermore,theyhaveverylargemolecularstructures.Thesematerialstypicallyhavelowdensitiesandmaybeextremelyflexible.
Composites:Anumberofcompositematerialshavebeenengineeredthatconsistofmorethanonematerialtype.Fiberglassisafamiliarexample,inwhichglassfibersareembeddedwithinapolymericmaterial.Acompositeisdesignedtodisplayacombinationofthebestcharacteristicsofeachofthecomponentmaterials.Fiberglassacquiresstrengthfromtheglassandflexibilityfromthepolymer.Manyoftherecentmaterialdevelopmentshaveinvolvedcompositematerials.
Semiconductors:Semiconductorshaveelectricalpropertiesthatareintermediatebetweentheelectricalconductorsandinsulators.Furthermore,theelectricalcharacteristicsofthesematerialsareextremelysensitivetothepresenceofminuteconcentrationsofimpurityatoms,whichconcentrationsmaybecontrolledoververysmallspatialregions.Thesemiconductorshavemade

Biomaterials:Biomaterialsareemployedincomponentsimplantedintothehumanbodyforreplacementofdiseasedordamagedbodyparts.Thesematerialsmustnotproducetoxicsubstancesandmustbecompatiblewithbodytissue(i.e.mustnotcauseadversebiologicalreactions).Alloftheabovematerials--metals,ceramics,polymers,compositesandsemiconductors--maybeusedasbiomaterials.Forexample,someofthebiomaterialssuchasCF/C(carbonfibers/carbon)andCF/PS(polysulfone)areutilizedinartificialhipreplacements.
