Course content
|
The course provides students with an overview of the following areas: atomic structure and crystallography, basic properties of materials, phase transformations, microstructure and its effect on properties, overview of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, special materials. 1. Organizational matters. Atomic structure, periodicity of properties. Ions. Chemical bond as a basic entity. Types of bonds. Molecules, compounds. Internal construction of metals. Influence of the internal structure of metals on electrical and magnetic properties. 2. Crystallography, crystal lattices. Miller indices. Defects of crystal lattices and their consequences for the behavior of materials 3. Reaction of the material to external thermal action (Diffusion, Fick's laws). 4. Reaction of the material to external mechanical action (Hardening and loosening) 5. Electrochemistry, Examples of redox and electrochemical processes, galvanic cell, electrolysis (e.g. electrolytic refining of Cu) 5. Reaction of materials to the effects of the external environment (corrosion, chemical properties) 6. Basic thermodynamic terms. System state and energy, phase rule. Phase transformations in metallic systems. Crystallization and transformations in the solid state (solid-liquid equilibrium, methods of preparation and properties of mono-crystals, whiskers and their strength, growth of a new phase...). 7. Allotropy and polymorphism. Thermal analysis. Basic types of equilibrium binary diagrams of systems. 8. The influence of chemical composition on the course of phase transformations and the resulting microstructure (Examples of binary diagrams of specific systems and their analysis) 9. Non-equilibrium states of systems (including examples on specific systems) 10. Influence of equilibrium and non-equilibrium processing parameters on the microstructure and properties of materials - concrete examples 11. Mechanical properties of materials and their determination (tensile test, hardness, bending impact test). Effect of long-term thermal and mechanical loading on material properties (fatigue, creep) 12. Basic types of ferrous and non-ferrous metals - overview, basic alloys and their properties and uses 13. Special materials with a metal component. Metal composites, porous metals. Nanocrystalline metallic materials. Non-crystalline metallic materials (metallic glasses).
