Ferrous | Iron is soft and ductile, making it commercially un-useful. When you mix iron with carbon the characteristics are greatly improved. Increasing the carbon content will make the material harder, reduce toughness and ductility. |
Ferrous Mild steel (properties) | -Ductile -Malleable -Tough -High tensile strength -Poor resistance to corrosion |
Ferrous Mild steel (uses) | -Nuts -Bolts -Washers -Car bodies -Panels for cookers |
Ferrous High carbon steel (properties) | -Very hard -Brittle -Difficult to cut -Poor corrosion resistance |
Ferrous High carbon steel (uses) | -Hand tools -Chisels -Plane blades |
Ferrous Cast iron (properties) | -Smooth skin -Strong when compressed -Self lubricating -Can't be bent or forged |
Ferrous Cast iron (uses) | -Machine parts -Brake discs -Engines |
Ferrous High speed steel (properties) | -Very hard -Heat resistant -Remains hard when red |
Ferrous High speed steel (uses) | Tools eg. drill bits |
Ferrous Stainless steel (properties) | -Tough -Hard -Corrosion resistant -Wears well -Difficult to cut, bend and file |
Ferrous Stainless steel (uses) | -Cutlery -Sinks |
Non-Ferrous Aluminium (properties) | -Good strength to weight ratio -Ductile -Malleable -Resists corrosion -Conducts heat and electricity well |
Non-Ferrous Aluminium (uses) | Kitchenware |
Non-Ferrous Copper (properties) | -Tough -Ductile -Malleable -Conducts electricity well -Corrosion resistant -Solders well |
Non-Ferrous Copper (uses) | -Electrical contacts -Pipes -Wires |
Non-Ferrous Tin (properties) | -Weak -Soft -Malleable -Ductile -Excellent corrosion resistant -Conducts electricity well |
