welcome back students so this is the
second part of the lecture five what I
discussed was put together in this slide
which is the last slide in the previous
part of the lecture and you know nature
and properties of material depends on
chemistry
adment of the atoms the materials the
defect structures so we have seen that
in it is the particular atom type that
is a composition the arrangements inside
the material or the space whether it's a
one dimension two dimensional or three
dimensional space that large extent
determines the properties of material
hence big step or important stem in
understanding properties of material is
to understand this internal structure
that's what we have seen and we are
taking a step to understand that now
we'll talk about a little bit about
bonding of the atoms their arrangements
and Etc before we talk about engineering
materials so structures has two types
obviously internal
structures one is the atomic structure
and the crystal structure which you have
discussed then you also have a micro
structures which consis of phases and
defects and their distributions more
about this will disc discuss lat
lectures or later chapter that's what
I've written and important aspect for
you to understand that it is this micro
structure which can be
telled by mechanical or by processing
actually so a typical component or any
kind of device you can think of could be
hybrid with many
materials and may have different kinds
of micr structures so when you put them
together we should know how to put them
together right then only we can get best
performance possible this is something
which is not easy to understand at the
beginning but as we go alone you'll see
that any typical component has many many
comp parts and that's why I call them as
a hybrid consisting of many things and
their connections are very important
whether you talk about a mobile phone or
a laptop or a computer many components
they put together to give you the best
performance so you also need to know how
they are connected
well in this slide I put together
everything all the details what you have
learned this is very important slides so
you see we start with the atom or
specific type of atoms or whatever it
consisting of any material atoms
arranged to give you a crystal crystals
will arrange to give a structure right
that's what we know and this crystals
will also be depending on atoms bonding
between the atom that's what is your
electromagnetic or what is called the
atomic bonding structures and all these
things together these things together
when they come in a macro level or sorry
micro level it form a micro structures
micro will consis of phases and defects
and the distribution forget about isual
part now this is not need not to be
discussed at the beginning now defects
can be vacancies we talked about it
dislocations twins gun boundaries voids
cracks many things right that's what it
is
and this is this is what you were
talking about different kinds of defect
like these are the twins grains
boundaries you can see twin boundaries
and this is a two-phase structure you
have a boundaries between the two phases
one is your actually there are more than
that more than two phases actually looks
like the three pH structure one is green
then you have a red they have a black so
you can have multiple Pages present in
the material and all these things
together forms a component and component
is produced by these processing routes
casting forming welding powder mety
Machining or even thin flame routs many
roots so you can clearly see if you want
to understand these components we need
to understand we need to start from
atoms and slowly build this
connections and once we know each
connections then only we can predict the
material properties that's what it is so
I request you to go through all these
things little more detailed manner don't
only think that simply by listening this
lectures or slides you'll understand
very everything please read some study
material books which are already given
to you at the beginning or any standard
St books will give you a lot of insight
what is happening in the material so uh
that's what we call is a material
science I hope I have given you and as
you have seen or probably you have heard
there are many properties which are micr
structure sensitive and they actually
are controlled by the mic exerise
control so let's talk about little bit
about things which you talk about this
the how the atoms are bonded together
here we know that bonding is a very
commonly taught even in first year of
physics or any engineering courses it is
taught so we have two types of bonds
strong interactions weak interactions
right strong interaction leads to ionic
bonds in which two different ions form
like a sodium chloride structure you
have a sodium ion form by removing one
electron that's what is called
na+ and then chlorine ion chlorine atom
will receive that electron from a
chlorine ion by the way they can
actually complete the octat right very
simple and then they can come together
because they are all different charges
they can come very easily together
attract each other and form a bond
that's called ionic bond this is a very
strong bond actually because bond is
formed by two different ions you can
also have calent bonds like in case of
silicon or in case of carbon you know
Carbon has four electrons the outer
cells so we can actually have sharing of
electrons between the atoms and form a
covalent type of bonds and these bonds
actually are very important in the sense
that they are going to give you strength
like diamond diamond has a strong calent
bonds and this calent bonds gives
Diamond one of the hardest material in
the world and third type of bond is
called a metallic
bond in case of ionic bond there is
electron transfer right from sodium to
chlorine in of coent bond there's no
electron transfer there sharing of
electron happen between the two atoms or
two pieces basically in metallic bonds
none of this happens in metallic bonds
every atom donate outside electrons and
this electrons then can hover around to
the whole material they're free to move
that's why they are called electron
cloud and this electron cloud move
inside the material depending on the
charge availability depending on the
potential applied
so therefore metallic bond basically
nothing but this positive ions as you've
seen in the crystal structure these are
positive Pines and then you have what
you have this metallic electron cloud
moving inside the material so this
electron cloud is not confined to any
atom they are free to move anywhere
that's why is called a metallic bonding
so bond is weak compared to calent and
ionic bonds but since electron cloud is
present they can go anywhere and they
can actually take the charge from one
place to other place to apply potential
that gives you electrical conductivity
thermal conductivity many other
important material properties then you
can also have what is know as a weak
interactions weak interaction means the
strength of this interactions are very
weak one is very important one is called
hydrogen bonds you know between two
water molecules you can have hydrogen
bonds possible you probably have read
about it okay okay hydogen man is a very
weak bond which can be broken very
easily you can also have V all bonds if
you have pces or molecules which have
some charge differences then it can also
lead to a bond formation these are
called Vall forces and this bonds can be
easily broken by breaking these bonds
you can actually form different kinds of
material in today's world 2D materials
are basically formed by breaking these
kind of weak bonds like graphine is
Bally a single sheet of carbon form from
Gra F by breaking the bonds between the
two layers that's what happens so this
electron interactions which leading to
formation of different kinds of bonds in
the materials has a profound influence
on the properties especially physical
mechanical and electronic properties so
it is important to understand these
aspects very well so I'll provide you
some different types of bonds like
calent Bond materials has a high melting
temperature hardness is obviously high
that deely poor because hardness is high
right like diamond diamond is a very
hard material but it's very brittle if
you throw it off it will break like a
pieces elal conductivity is very low
examples are dond camic silicon
germanium they all actually are having
calent time Bonds in fact many carbonis
materials has calent tyes of bonds ionic
bonds have very high melting temperature
many of the ionic bond compounds are M
temperature quite high they also very
hard and ble sodium chloride is you know
it's basically common salt it's
basically very hard but it is also ble
it has no free electron available so
that's why there's no electrical
conductivity zinc sulfide cium chloride
also examples of that metallic bonds
metalic temperature can vary depending
on the kind of atom present because
electrons are basically in a c of pool
dity is quite High because they can
atoms can easily move from one place to
Other Place bonds are not so strong they
have hard elal conductive because of the
large amount of electrons present free
to move inside the material examples of
iron copper silver then you can have
Vandal bonds Vandal materials have very
low melting temperature same thing to
for the hyen bonds also and they are
Bally soft materials very soft they have
no hardness because their bond sign is
very low for the both the Pall and
hydrogen bonds electrical conductivity
is exactly low same as like a calent
bonded materials pandal bonds present in
all our rare the neon argon Krypton all
the gases which are present on the
extreme right of the periodic table
right and hydrogen bond is present from
Ice between the two water molecules so
you probably have understood by now the
nature of bonding and the atomic
structure they play The crucial low and
determination of these properties
properties I'm showing in front of you
in this list and both these natural
bonding and atomic structures are
results of part results of electronic
interactions so we we start from
electrons electron interly to bond
formation between the atoms then atoms
lead arrang in a different way lead to
crystals Crystal different way leads to
micro structures and that's how the
whole structures can be built up so I'll
talk about this aspect later later uh
Material Science relies on four
important pillars one is called
electromagnetic structures which you
have seen and then you have Crystal
structures or physical structures other
than that you also have to understand
thermodynamics how these structures are
stabilized what are the energetics of
the structures and similarly you have to
understand how fast these structures can
be transformed from the one to other
that's why determine the kinetics so
these four pillars actually are very
basic things of Material Science once
you know this four pillar very well you
can actually design and develop new
materials easily so I'll not talk about
much of this but I'll move forward and
give you some perspectives of uh this
aspects so we have talked about all
kinds of structures right so let me give
you some glimpses of engineering
materials which can be used as for you
like a standard to design a new
materials so as you have to talked about
it about materials you have Metals
Ceramics and polymers but since Metals
actually are large in numbers in a
periodic table
we can combine them one group and all
else everything else like Ceramics
composite polymers can be non-metals
that's what I see and then metals can be
subgrouped into two parts because of the
wide use of feros we also divide non
feros ferah means iron based basically
Steels cast IR actually ferah that's why
you call as one group and they are the
largest T material use in the world so
this is how actually one can look at the
whole material world if you are
preference to Metals then you have feros
and non ferus preference to non-metals
you have composite Ceramics Plastics or
polymers actually well for the FAS the
important aspect is steel actually and
you know we'll talk about a little bit
on this aspect steel is actually nothing
but iron I already talked about a little
bit of carbon carbon can be very small
very from 02 to point about 1 percentage
2% is Extreme we can talk about 2% but
we never have a steel with 2% we% of
carbon normally varies from 02 to about
1% and Steels can be classified into two
parts one is called plain carbon steel
alloy steel plain carbon steel means
it's iron little bit of carbon and some
very small impu like phosphorus sulfur
manganese alloy steel means we add other
elements inally like let's say stainless
steel it's alloy steel we have lot of
chromium and nickel present in the
stainless steel tool steel it has
chromium mly many things present
interally added that's the difference
between plain carbon steel and allo
steel plain carbon steel will not have
this element present or interestingly
added allo steel will have that added so
you know I don't want to give you this
perspectives in a detail manner just to
show you the Steels actually are based
on this phase diagram which is called
iron carbon or iron carbide phase
diagram and this is the basis for our
steel and the castan as you can clearly
see that this is Pon and this is
somewhere going to f3c which is nothing
but six contain about 6.67 we% of carbon
F3 compound actually and I told you iron
has a three crystal structure BCC at
room temperature FCC in the intermate
temperature and BCC at high temperature
that's called Alpha Gamma and Delta
Alpha is BC structure room temperature
gamma is FC structure at high
temperature or intermediate temperature
rather and Delta is basically a BC
structure again at high temperature and
if you add carbon everything gets
changed that's why this diagram is
talking about it and the gamma iron
which is nothing but a iron in carbon in
a solute solution way is basically
present in the oxit OR gamma iron and
maximum of carbon can be there in about
2.08% that's why theoretically speaking
we Define Steels
contain 02 to. 28% of carbon but
practically speaking most of the steel
contain less than about 1% carbon
majority of Steel content carbon concent
2 to.5 per that is called mild stees so
therefore practically definition is
carbon concentration is about 0 to 1%
cast on the other hand contain large
amount of carbon it can contain about
3.5 to about 4.5 or even 4.8% of carbon
this domain actually you can clearly see
that's what the castar and domains are
that's why the reason I wanted to see
show you this diagram this is the steel
this is the castan
and this is the basis for all the Steels
in the literature so let's stop there
you know we'll talk about different
aspects of these phases in the next
lecture you can have compounds like f3c
you can also have gamma solute Solutions
you should know what is what and how
they are actually depends on a little
bit of understanding of the subject is
also required to know how the steel
structures develop how the cast
structure develop and how they determine
the material properties so with this let
us stop and I will you know discuss more
about this in the next lecture and uh
please uh most important uh you know
thing for you to know is that you know I
cannot teach everything in detail manner
because our basic Focus will be on how
to use Ai and ml artificial intelligence
and machine learning to designer
materials so that's why I can spend
little time to give you some idea of
material science engineering but if you
want to know more about it details about
it please read standard State books
textbooks or you can even go through
some other nptl lectures which are
available on steals or physical matology
of materials that can provide you much
better perspectives but nonetheless
whatever I'm giving you that is enough
for you to have very basic understanding
of the
subject okay thank you
