Aluminum has been produced commercially only for about 150 years and is still a very young metal. At the start of the 20 century, some 8000 tonnes of aluminum was produced annually, whereas 80 years later it was 16 million tonnes, thus 2000 times more. Mankind has been using copper, lead and tin for thousands of years and yet today more aluminum is produced than all other non-ferrous metals together. The total world production of primary aluminum was 24 million tonnes in 2001. In addition, some 7 million toimes of secondary aluminum were produced. 

The soluble fraction of crude petroleum depress phytoplankton, photosynthesis, respiration and growth, and also kill or cause developmental abnormalities of young metallic ions present in the WSF may inhibit root growth (Winter et al. 1976).

Sihcon carbide fibers exhibit high temperature stabiUty and, therefore, find use as reinforcements in certain metal matrix composites (24). SiUcon fibers have also been considered for use with high temperature polymeric matrices, such as phenoHc resins, capable of operating at temperatures up to 300°C. Sihcon carbide fibers can be made in a number of ways, for example, by vapor deposition on carbon fibers. The fibers manufactured in this way have large diameters (up to 150 P-m), and relatively high Young s modulus and tensile strength, typically as much as 430 GPa (6.2 x 10 psi) and 3.5 GPa (507,500 psi), respectively (24,34) (see Refractory fibers). 

The corroded tubercle floor is almost always a dish-shaped depression, much wider than it is deep (Fig. 3.23). Undercutting is very rare. The metal-loss width almost exactly matches the tubercular mound width. Corrosion rates exceeding 50 mil per year are rare, except when tubercles are young. Average local corrosion rates are usually 20 mil per year or less.

A composite material consists of flat, thin metal plates of uniform thickness glued one to another with a thin, epoxy-resin layer (also of uniform thickness) to form a multi-decker-sandwich structure. Young s modulus of the metal is Ej, that of the epoxy resin is E2 (where E2 < Ej) and the volume fraction of metal is Vj. Find the ratio of the maximum composite modulus to the minimum composite modulus in terms of Ej, E2 and V. Which value of gives the largest ratio ...

So ceramics, at room temperature, generally have a very large lattice resistance. The stress required to make dislocations move is a large fraction of Young s modulus typically, around E/30, compared with E/10 or less for the soft metals like copper or... 

Spruce soundboards have a Young s modulus anisotropy of about (11.6 GPa/0.71 GPa) = 16. A replacement material must therefore have a similar anisotropy. This requirement immediately narrows the choice down to composites (isotropic materials like metals or polymers will probably sound awful). 

The plastic deformation of such polymers is a major research area and has a triennial series of conferences entirely devoted to it. The process seems to be drastically different from that familiar from metals. A review some years ago (Young 1988) surveyed the available information about polyethylene the yield stress is linearly related to the fraction of crystallinity, and it increases sharply as the thickness...
