Title: Use of the metals and alloys


1
Use of the metals and alloys
  • Metal
  • Any of a class of substances characterized by
    high electrical and thermal conductivity as well
    as by malleability,ductility,and high
    reflectivity of a light.
  • Alloys
  • Metallic substance composed of two or more
    elements, as either a compound or a solution. The
    components of alloys are ordinarily themselves
    metals, though carbon,a nonmetal,is an essential
    constituent of steel.

2
Metal Iron ( Fe )
  • Chemical element, metal of Group VIII of the
    periodic table , the most used and cheapest
    metal.
  • Characteristics
  • Strong,(especially in form of steel.)
  • Malleable
  • Cheap in price.

3
Use of Iron
  • We use iron to make ship and bridge,because it is
    hard ,cheap in price,malleable.

4
Alloy steel
  • An alloy of iron and carbon in which the carbon
    content amounts to about 2 or less.the addition
    of this tiny amount of carbon results in a
    substance that exhibits great strength,
    hardness,and other valuable mechanical
    properties,and these,together with its low
    manufacturing cost and abundant source materials

5
Use of steel
  • The powerful saw
  • Its made of hard steel.
  • It is hard in enough to cut other metal.

6
  • Use to make the railway lines,because its is hard
    enough to absorb the weight from train.
