A system of laws; a set of principles, as of ethics. Solid material which is composed of two or more substances having different physical characteristics. Polymers any of numerous natural and synthetic compounds of usually high molecular weight consisting of up to millions of repeated linked units. Metals the process of creating an object by adding small pieces or layers together to make a final product.

pieces or layers together to make a final product. Of or relating to the manufacture of any product (as earthenware, porcelain, or brick) made essentially from a nonmetallic mineral (as clay) by firing at a high temperature. A systemized body of laws; a set of principles, as of ethics. Solid material which is composed of two or more substances having different physical characteristics and in which each substance retains its identity while contributing desirable properties to the whole; especially, a structural material made of plastic within which a fibrous material (as silicon carbide) is embedded. A tool for systematically ranking alternatives according to a set of criteria. Machining a surface to size with a fine feed produced in a lathe, milling machine, or grinder. A process that changes the size and shape of a material by a combination of force and a shaped form. Anything for which a person is legally bound or responsible. To make into a product suitable for use; to make from raw materials by hand or by machinery; to produce according to an organized plan and with division of labor. The elements, constituents, or substances of which something is composed or can be made; matter that has qualities which give it individuality and by which it may be categorized. Those properties of a material that reveal the elastic and inelastic reaction when force is applied, or that involve the relationship between stress and strain; for example, the modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, and fatigue limit. Any of various opaque, fusible, ductile, and typically lustrous substances that are good conductors of electricity and heat.

Physical Properties
Properties other than mechanical properties that pertain
to the physics of a material and can usually be measured without the application of force.
Polymers
Any of numerous natural and synthetic compounds of
usually high molecular weight consisting of up to millions of repeated linked units, each a relatively light and simple molecule. Stages a product goes through from concept and use to eventual withdrawal from the marketplace. Crude or processed material that can be converted by manufacture, processing, or combination into a new and useful product; something with a potential for improvement, development, or elaboration. Returning to an original condition. The extraction and recovery of valuable materials from scrap or other discarded materials. Processes that remove material to change the size, shape, or surface of a part. There are two groups of separating processes: machining and shearing. Produced by the combining of parts or elements to form a whole, rather than of natural origin; not real, artificial.
