Metals in the Service of Man

Let us consider why metals play such a great role in man’s activities. Wood and stone are both older in use, yet to a considerable extent they have been replaced by metals. In spite of the great progress of chemistry and increasing output of plastic materials metals are still used for most of machines, structures and instruments. If there were no metals, no railway, airplane, car, electric motor, turbine or pipeline could operate.

The reason for the increased use of metals is to be found in their characteristic properties. The most important of these properties is their strength or ability to support weight without bending or breaking. Resistance to atmospheric destruction, plasticity and the ability to be formed into desired shapes are remarkable as well. Some metals have also special properties – two of which are the ability to conduct electric current and the ability to be magnetized.

Nowadays we know that over three quarters of existing elements are metals. We know approximately over 80 metals and several thousand alloys.

Most metals are usually found in nature as minerals or ores, where they exist in chemical combinations with other substances. Metallic ores contain metals combined with oxygen, sulphur or other metals.

Ores are usually mined and passed to the metallurgist for refining and purification. The ores are treated by fire or chemically by the process called smelting. Ores have to pass through this very complicated process before pure metals are obtained.

But pure metals are comparatively seldom used because they are rather expensive and their strength is generally insufficient for the purposes of to-day. The most important way in which the strength of metals can be increased is alloying. Alloys are the most important engineering materials. Alloys are obtained by adding various metals or non-metals to the main metallic element.

Mechanical Properties of Metals

As is known metals play an important role in the life of the mankind. Knowledge of their principal mechanical properties is of vital importance for selection and the proper application of metallic materials. Engineers in all branches of industry must know the mechanical properties of metals used by them and what processes can change these properties in the desired directions. This knowledge can prevent failures of structures.

The mechanical properties of a material are those related to the ability of a material to withstand external mechanical forces such as pulling, pushing, twisting, bending and a sudden impact.

Strength is the property of resistance of a material to external loads or stresses without structural damage.

Stress is a force per unit area.

The tensile or ultimate strength is the limit of the strength of a material capable to withstand the maximum load of a structural member without breaking.

Elasticity is the property of a material due to which it tends to recover its original size and shape after deformation.

Ductility is the ability of a material to deform plastically in tension without breaking. Copper and aluminium are extremely ductile, generally speaking. Most low carbon steels are quite ductile. Some cast irons have almost no ductility. To put it in simple terms, they break before bend. So cast iron is brittle.

Malleability is the property of metals which permits plastic deformation in compression without breaking.

Hardness is usually defined as the ability of a metal to resist penetration by another material.

Impact strength is the ability of a material to withstand shock or large forces suddenly applied.

There are some other very important mechanical properties such as toughness, yield strength, wear resistance and others.
