NONFERROUS ALLOYS
• Cu Alloys
• Al Alloys
Brass: Zn is subst. impurity -lower : 2.7g/cm 3
(costume jewelry, coins,
-Cu, Mg, Si, Mn, Zn additions
corrosion resistant)
-solid sol. or precip.
Bronze: Sn, Al, Si, Ni are
strengthened (struct.
subst. impurity
aircraft parts
(bushings, landing
& packaging)
gear)
• Mg Alloys
NonFerrous
Cu-Be:
-very low : 1.7g/cm 3
Alloys
precip. hardened
-ignites easily
for strength
-aircraft, missles
• Ti Alloys
-lower : 4.5g/cm 3
• Refractory metals
-high melting T
-Nb, Mo, W, Ta
vs 7.9 for steel
• Noble metals
-reactive at high T -Ag, Au, Pt
-oxid./corr. resistant
-space applic.
Based on discussion and data provided in Section 11.3, Callister 6e.

TAXONOMY OF CERAMICS
Adapted from Fig. 13.1 and discussion
in Section 13.2-6, Callister 6e.
• Properties:
--Tmelt for glass is moderate, but large for other ceramics.
--Small toughness, ductility; large moduli & creep resist.
• Applications:
--High T, wear resistant, novel uses from charge neutrality.
• Fabrication
--some glasses can be easily formed
--other ceramics can not be formed or cast.
5
APPLICATION: REFRACTORIES
• Need a material to use in high temperature furnaces.
• Consider Silica (SiO2) - Alumina (Al2O3) system.
• Phase diagram shows:
mullite, alumina, and crystobalite (made up of SiO2)
tetrahedra as candidate refractories.

• Die surface:
--4 mm polycrystalline diamond
particles that are sintered on to a
cemented tungsten carbide
substrate.
--polycrystalline diamond helps control
fracture and gives uniform hardness
in all directions.

APPLICATION: CUTTING TOOLS
• Tools:
--for grinding glass, tungsten,
carbide, ceramics
--for cutting Si wafers
--for oil drilling
• Solutions:
oil drill bits
--manufactured single crystal
or polycrystalline diamonds
in a metal or resin matrix.
--optional coatings (e.g., Ti to help
diamonds bond to a Co matrix
via alloying)
--polycrystalline diamonds
resharpen by microfracturing
along crystalline planes.

APPLICATION: SENSORS
• Ex: Oxygen sensor: ZrO2
• Principle: Make diffusion of ions
fast for rapid response.
• Approach:
Add Ca impurity to:
--increase O2- vacancies
--increase O2- diffusion
• Operation:
--voltage difference
produced when
O2- ions diffuse
between external
and references
gases.

SUMMARY
• Steels: increase TS, hardness (and cost) by adding
-C (low alloy steels)
-Cr, V, Ni, Mo, W (high alloy steels)
-Ductility usually decreases w/ additions
• Nonferrous:
-Cu, Al, Ti, Mg Refractory, and noble metals
• Basic categories of ceramics:
-Glasses
-Clay products
-Refactories
-Cements
-Advanced ceramics
