History of Materials Materials have been used to advance / change society Functional reasons: do new things, Do old things better or more efficiently Human reasons: psychological, societal, Power, status We talk of the “Stone Age”, the “Bronze Age” and the “Iron Age” These refer to the dominant materials that defined these societies Today we might be in the “Silicon Age” - but things are changing so quickly that Ages are becoming Decades Most of the materials we use today have been developed in the past 100 years! History of Materials Next slide shows the development of materials over time. Materials of pre-history are on the left and occur naturally The development of chemistry and polymers enabled man-made materials shown in the coloured zones on the right. Timeline of Materials History of Materials 10000 years ago most of the materials were naturally occurring Some processes were developed such as Weaving, brickmaking, cloth making, tool making. As each Age came, new processes allowed the development of new materials. A few hundreds more materials perhaps In the past 100 years this small number has grown enormously – we now have 160,000 different materials that we have developed and “know” Light alloys (new to this century – 1000s) High performance composites (new to this century – 100s) Synthetic Polymers and elastomers gels and foams (new to this century – 45000) This wealth
