This time One more metals topic: shape memory alloy.
Introduction to plastics.

Shape-Memory Alloy Two main metal phases are shown below:
![Page 5: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Shape-Memory Alloy In steel, the martensite/austenite transition is
influenced by alloying, cold-working etc.
In shape memory allow, the transition is caused by a small change in temperature.
The best-known shape memory allow is Nitinol NiTi (Nickel Titanium).
![Page 6: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Shape-Memory Alloy The austenite is stiffer and has lower volume. Heating SMA wire causes it to contract with
some force. Strains of 3-5% are typical.

Shape-Memory Alloy Nitinol has the following attributes:
Martensite Austenite

Resistivity 76 82

Plastics Plastics exhibit an incredible variety of
properties due to their rich chemical makeup.
They are inexpensive to produce, and easy to mold, cast, or machine.
Their properties can be expanded even further in composites with other materials.
![Page 9: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Polymer chemistry Polymers are chain molecules. They are built
up from simple units called monomers. E.g. polyethylene is built from ethylene units:
which are assembled into long chains:
![Page 10: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Polymer structure The polymer chain layout determines a lot of
material properties:
Amorphous:
Crystalline:
![Page 11: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cross-linking Generally, amorphous polymers are weak. Cross-linking adds strength: vulcanized rubber
is polyisoprene with sulphur cross-links:
![Page 12: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Branched polymers Polymer chains can branch:
Or the fibers may aligned parallel, as in fibers and some plastic sheets.
![Page 13: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Copolymers Polymers often have two different monomers
along the chain – they are called copolymers.
With three different units, we get a terpolymer.
This gives us an enormous design space…

Thermoplastics Polymers which melt and solidify without
chemical change are called thermoplastics. They support hot-forming methods such as
injection-molding and importantly for us, FDM.
![Page 16: Design Realization lecture 12](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b9c550346895dc9a151/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Thermoset plastics Polymers which irreversibly change when
heated are called thermosets. Most often, the change involves cross-linking
which strengthens the polymer (setting). Thermosets will not melt, and have good heat
resistance. They are often made from multi-part compounds
and formed before setting (e.g. epoxy resin). Setting accelerates with heat, or for some
polymers with UV light.

Elastomers Elastomers are synthetic rubbers E < 1 GPa Polyurethane – used in pillows and cushions. Silicones – used for caulking and Space Shuttle
heat tiles.
Silicones are inorganic with an S-O backbone. Fluoroelastomers – good electrical insulators.
