C2 - Material Choices
Natural and Synthetic materials
All materials are made of chemicals
Made from atoms or groups of atoms (molecules)
natural
Materials from plants
Wood and paper from trees
Cotton from cotton plant
From anilmals
Wool from sheep
Silk from silkworm larvae
Leather from cows
Synthetic - made by humans
can control porperties
Rubber altered in a factory
Nylon and Polyester for clothes
Waterproofing, stretchy, sparkly
Paints
Raw materials used to make synthetic materials come from the Earth's crust
Materials and Properties
Melting and boiling points
The temperature at which a: solid turns to liquid or a liquid turns to gas
Strength
The ability to resist a force before breakage or deformation
Tensile
Pulling force
Ropes and cables
Compressive
Pushing force
Concrete for construction
Stiffness
Inflexibility
Hardness
Difficulty to cut into a material
Hard = Diamond
Hardest naturally occuring material
Soft = Paper
Density
Materials mass per unit volume
eg. g/cm3
Buoyancy
Objects which are less dense than water will float
Objects which are more dense than water will sink.
Material's Properties and Uses
Uses for materials depend on the material's properties
Examples
Plastics
Hard, Strong and Stiff
Low density (lightweight)
Mouldable
Cases for TVs, Computers and Kettles
Rubber
Strong
Mouldable
Car Tyres
Nylon Fibres
Soft and Flexible
Good tensile strength
Ropes and Clothing
Properties of a product depend on the materials
Suitablity of material for use
Cooking utensils
Non toxix, high melting point
Toy car
non toxic, strong, stiff and low density
Nanotechology
Nanomaterials are tiny
1nm = 0.000 000 001m
1-100 nanometres across are nanoparticles
Natural
Sea-spray
Combustion produces nano particulates
Different properties than larger particles of the same chemical
Sliver cant kill bacteria due to its lower surface area to volume ratio
Branch of technology dealing with nanoparticles
Design nanomaterials for specific uses
Strengthening sports materials such as tennis rackets, golf clubs and golf balls.
Silver particles in surgical masks and plasters giving antibacterial properties
Ethics
Effects of nanoparticles are unknown
Testing is important
Long term risks cannot be tested
Clearly labled so that consumers can choose to use or not use
