Manufacturing & Employment Relation
Manufacturing - Technological
Application of physical and chemical processes to alter the geometry,
properties, and/or appearance of a starting material to make parts or products.
Manufacturing – Economic
Transformation of materials into items of greater value by one or more
processing and/or assembly operations.
Manufacturing Industries
Industry consists of enterprises and organizations that produce or
supply goods and services
Industries can be classified as:
1. Primary industries - cultivate and exploit natural resources, e.g.,
agriculture, mining
2. Secondary industries - take the outputs of primary industries and
convert them into consumer and capital goods
3. Tertiary industries - service sector
Brittleness –Breaking or shattering of a material when subjected to stress (when force is applied to it).
Elasticity – The property of a material that returns to its original shape after stress (e.g. external
forces) that made it deform or distort is removed
Toughness – The ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.
Hardness – The property of being rigid and resistant to pressure; not easily scratched
Machinability – The property of a material that can be shaped by hammering, pressing, rolling
Physical properties
Specific heat – The heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one
Thermal conductivity –Rate at which heat flows through a given material (W/m K).
Electrical conductivity – A measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current
(Ω⋅m)
Polyethylene: (the mer unit is C2H4) Polypropylene: (the mer unit is C3H6)
There are several materials that we have known for some time that posses piezoelectric
properties, including bone, proteins, crystals (e.g. Quartz) and ceramics (e.g. Lead,
Zirconate Titanate).
Biomaterial
A biomaterial can be defined as any substance (other than a drug) or combination of
substances synthetic or natural in origin, which can be used for any period of time, as
a whole or as a part of a system which treats, augments, or replaces any tissue, organ
or function of the body.
Theoretically, any material can be a biomaterial as long as it serves the stated medical
and surgical purposes.
Example of Biomaterial
Titanium Biomaterials
Biomaterial applications
Orthopedic Applications:
Metallic materials are normally used for load bearing members such as pins and
plates and femoral stems etc.
Ceramics such as Alumina and Zirconia are used for wear applications in joint
replacements.
Polymers such as ultra high molecular weight polyethylene are used as articulating
surfaces against ceramic components in joint replacements.
Dental Applications:
Metallic biomaterials have been used as pins for anchoring tooth implants and as
parts of orthodontic devices.
Ceramics have found uses as tooth implants including alumina and dental porcelains.
Polymers, are also orthodontic devices such as plates and dentures.
