Chapter 8 PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS M: Seats Material: Leather is becoming a standard equipment in most cars today. But there are still some cars which have PVC seats and others with fabric seats. A new emerging material is Alcantara (a synthetic suede) which heats up less than leather when exposed to direct sunlight for hours (thereby not scorching you bottom) and grips you better than leather. Chapter 8 PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS These are just some of the common items you see in a car. There are still thousands of other parts in less conspicuous areas of a car waiting for you to explore. For example, polyisoprene is employed in the sidewalls of some tires, cords made of Kevlar are sometimes used to reinforce tires, polyisoprene (a type of synthetic rubber) is used to make the bladders of some windscreen wipers, polybutadiene (another type of synthetic rubber) is employed in the hoses in the engine compartment, etc. This is the end of my book, bu it should not be the end of you life-learning. Look around you and you will find lots more to discover in this world. God bless.

Joining is achieved by mechanical locking or adhesion. Joint has low strength, low hardness, low temperature applications, cannot withstand strong vibrations. Cheap and convenient method of joining, chiefly for electrical contacts. APPENDIX Applications: Electrical solders are basically tin-lead alloys(soft solders), usually 50-55% composition for common general use. There are other combinations used for various special purposes, e.g, with Pb, Bi, Ag, Cu, Zn. Some have no tin at all (depends on co
