Material Energy, information and material are three pillars of development of modern society. Materials can be classified according to its composition and characteristics: 1）inorganic material: metallic material, ceramic material, inorganic glass 2）polymer material: synthetic polymer (plastic, synthetic fibre, synthetic rubber), other functional polymers 3）composite material: combination of technical ceramic or polymer materials, resulting in superior properties. Chapter 1: new inorganic material New metallic material 1. Common alloy Steel Aluminum alloys copper alloys 2. Special alloy Corrosion-resistant alloy Thermal-resistant alloy 3. Advanced alloy materials Shape Memory Alloys Heat-resistant alloys Hydrogen storing alloys Magnetic alloys Chaper 2:Inorganic non-metallic material——Ceramic material Classical ceramic Fine ceramic Nano ceramic 2. Fine Ceramic Definition: Made from fine grade material, with precisely controlled chemical composition. It is manufactured and processed with ease for structural design, control. It is ceramic with superior properties. High-temperature structural ceramics Transparent ceramics Heat resistant, high strength, high tensile strength ceramics Bio-ceramics Electronic ceramics Superconducting ceramics 3. Nano-ceramics Nano-technology Most material is in solid form particles are in the size of micro metre 10-6 or even nano metre (10-9) With great number of particles, surface area is great. A large proportion of atoms are on the surface of the particles Nano materials thus have uncommon surface effect, peripheral effect and quantum effects, resulting in a series of unique properties. Chaper 2 Synthetic polymer material(organic synthetic material) Based on the concept of polymer Traditional synthetic polymer including plastic, fibre, rubber etc. 1. Functional polymer Electric conducting polymer Medical polymer Biodegradable polymer Water absorbing polymer Medical polymer materials and their usages Ch
