Solid Solutions
A solid solution occurs when we alloy two metals and they are completely soluble in each other. If a solid solution alloy is viewed under a microscope only one type…
Introduction to phase diagram
Component Pure metal or compound (e.g., Cu, Zn in Cu-Zn alloy, sugar, water, in syrup.) Solvent Host or major component in solution. Solute Dissolved, minor component in solution. System Set…
TYPES OF BONDING
Ionic Bonding This is the bond when one of the atoms is negative (has an extra electron) and another is positive (has lost an electron). Then there is a strong,…
CLASSIFICATION OF MATERIALS
Metals Valence electrons are detached from atoms, and spread in an 'electron sea' that "glues" the ions together. Metals are usually strong, conduct electricity and heat well and are opaque…
The Importance of CNC Machine Maintenance
