Materials Science and Engineering
• Recycling issues,
INTRODUCTION
• Materials Selection A variety of materials science and materials engineering
issues to include criteria for materials selection process.
• Many selection criteria relate to material properties or property combinations—
• Mechanical,
• Electrical,
• Thermal,
• Corrosion, etc.
• Performance of component Properties of the material from which it is made.
• Processability (ease of fabrication) may also play a role in the selection process.
• Engineering practice Marketable product development.
• Economic in nature Unrelated to scientific principles and engineering practice.
• Product is to be competitive in the commercial marketplace.
• Other criteria Environmental and societal issues (pollution, disposal, recycling, toxicity,
and energy.

• Many countries have specific regulations regarding the chemicals used, CO2
emissions, and end-of-life procedures.
• For example, in some instances, deleting toxic chemicals (which are regulated) in a
product results in a cheaper fabrication process.

Economic Considerations
• A product must make economic sense:
-- The price must be attractive to customers.
-- It must return a sustainable profit to the company.

Component Design
• Some fraction of the cost of a component is associated with its design.
• Component design is the specification of
• Size,
• Shape, and
• Configuration,
which affects in-service component performance.
• For example, if mechanical forces are present, then stress analyses may be
required.
• Detailed drawings of the component must be prepared.
• A single component is often part of a complex device or system consisting of a large
number of components, thus, design must take into consideration each
component’s contribution to the efficient operation of the complete system.

U10
Component Design
• The approximate cost of a product is determined by this up-front design, even
before the product has been manufactured.
• Creative design and the selection of appropriate materials can have a significant
impact later on.
• Component design is a highly iterative process that involves many compromises
and trade-offs.
• The engineer should keep in mind that an optimal component design may not be
possible because of system constraints.

Materials
• In terms of economics, we should select the material or materials with the
appropriate combination(s) of properties that are
• The least expensive,
• Which may also include consideration of availability.
• Once a family of materials has been selected that satisfy the design constraints, cost
comparisons of the various candidate materials may be made on the basis of cost
per part.
• Material price is usually quoted per unit mass, the part volume may be determined
from its dimensions and geometry, which is then converted into mass using the
density of the material.
• In addition, during manufacturing, there is typically some unavoidable material
waste that should also be taken into account in these computations.

Manufacturing Techniques
• The choice of manufacturing process is influenced by both the material selected
and part design.
• The entire manufacturing process normally consists of
• Primary operations and
• Secondary operations.
• Primary operations are those that convert the raw material into a recognizable part
• Casting,
• Plastic forming,
• Powder compaction,
• Molding,
• etc.

Manufacturing Techniques
• Secondary operations are those subsequently used to produce the finished part
• Heat treatments,
• Welding,
• Grinding,
• Drilling,
• Painting,
• Decorating.
• Major cost considerations for these processes include
• Capital equipment,
• Tooling,
• Labor,
• Repairs,
• Machine downtime, and
• Waste.

Manufacturing Techniques
• In this cost analysis, rate of production is an important consideration.
• If part is one component of a system, then assembly costs must also be addressed.
• Finally, the cost associated with final product is also associated with
• Inspection,
• Packaging, and
• Transportation.
• Factors not directly related to design, material, or manufacturing includes in selling price.
• These factors include
• Labor fringe benefits,
• Supervisory and management labor,
• Research and development,
• Property and rent,
• Insurance,
• Profit,
• Taxes,
• and so on.

represents the “cradle-to-grave” life circuit of a material.

• These raw materials are then purified, refined, and converted into bulk forms such
as metals, cements, petroleum, rubber, and fibers.
• Synthesis and processing results in products that are what may be termed
engineered materials, such as metal alloys, ceramic powders, glass, plastics,
composites, semiconductors, and elastomers.
• Next, these engineered materials are further shaped, treated, and assembled into
products, devices, and appliances that are ready for the consumer (product
design, manufacture, assembly) stage.

RECYCLING OF METALS
• Aluminum is the most commonly recycled metal.
• Compared to refining raw ore, reprocessing metals
– Is more energy efficient.
– Produces less waste (pollution).

RECYCLING OF GLASS
• Glasses are the most common commercial
ceramics.
• Little economic incentive to recycle glass
– Raw materials inexpensive.
– Relatively dense - expensive to transport.
– Must be sorted by
• Color – clear, amber, green, brown, etc.
• Type – plate vs. container. Johnny Greig/iStockphoto

RECYCLING POLYMERS
• Thermoplastic polymers easily recycled.
– Grind into pellets, melt, and extrude or mold into
new product.
– Must be sorted by polymer type – polyethylene,
polystrene, PET, etc.
– Properties degrade in each reuse.
