 material protection (from corrosion,
damage, etc.)
1. Physical properties
2. Mechanical properties
3. Chemical properties
 colour
–light wave length
 specific
heat – the heat required to raise
the temperature of one gram of a
substance by one degree centigrade
(J/kg K)
 density
– mass per unit volume
expressed in such units as kg/cm 3
 thermal
conductivity –rate at which
heat flows through a given material (W/m
K)
 melting
point – a temperature at which a
solid begins to liquify
 electrical
conductivity – a measure of
how strongly a material opposes the flow
of electric current (Ω⋅m)
 coefficient
of thermal expansion –
degree of expansion divided by the
change in temperature (m/°C)
 tensile
strength – measures the force
required to pull something such as
rope,wire or a structural beam to the
point where it breaks
 ductility
– a measure of how much strain
a material can take before rupturing
 malleability
– the property of a material
that can be worked or hammered or
shaped without breaking
 brittleness
–breaking or shattering of a
material when subjected to stress (when
force is applied to it)
 elasticity
– the property of a material
that returns to its original shape after
stress (e.g. external forces) that made it
deform or distort is removed
 plasticity
- the deformation of a material
undergoing non-reversible changes of
shape in response to applied forces
 toughness
– the ability of a material to
absorb energy and plastically deform
without fracturing
 hardness
– the property of being rigid
and resistant to pressure; not easily
scratched
 machinability
– the property of a
material that can be shaped by
hammering, pressing, rolling
 corrosion
resistance - a material's
ability to resist deterioration caused by
exposure to an environment

Forging - a manufacturing process
where metal is shaped by plastic
deformation under great pressure into
high strength parts.
Casting – pouring or injecting molten
metal into a mold containing a cavity with
the desired shape
