Classification of materials
Metals - Materials in this group are composed of one or more
metallic elements (Fe, Al, Cu, Ti, Au, and Ni), and often also
non-metallic elements ( C, N, and O).
Atoms in metals and their alloys are arranged in a very
relatively stiff and strong, yet are ductile (i.e., capable of large
amounts of deformation without fracture), and are resistant to
fracture, which accounts for their widespread use in structural
applications.
Ceramics
Ceramics are compounds between metallic and nonmetallic elements; they are most frequently oxides,
nitrides, and carbides.
For example, some of the common ceramic materials
include aluminium oxide (or alumina,Al2O3), silicon
dioxide (or silica, SiO2), silicon carbide (SiC), silicon
Polymers
Polymers include the familiar plastic and rubber materials.
Many of them are organic compounds that are chemically
based on carbon, hydrogen, and other non-metallic elements
(O,N, and Si). Furthermore, they have very large molecular
pliable (i.e., plastic), which means they are easily formed into
complex shapes. In general, they are relatively inert
chemically and unreactive in a large number of environments.
One major drawback to the polymers is their tendency to
soften and/or decompose at modest temperatures, which, in
some instances, limits their use
Composites
A composite is composed of two (or more) individual
materials, which come from metals, ceramics, and
polymers.
The design goal of a composite is to achieve a
combination of properties that is not displayed by any
single material, and also to incorporate the best
characteristics of each of the component materials.
glass fibers are relatively strong and stiff (but also brittle),
whereas the polymer is ductile (but also weak and flexible).
Thus, the resulting fiber glass is relatively stiff, strong,
flexible, and ductile. In addition, it has a low density .
