Degradation and Protection of Wood Unprotected wood can degrade swiftly. Since wood is an organic substance, many fungi,
microorganisms, and insects can infest the wood, feed off it and cause it to rot.
Wood can be painted, stained, varnished or treated with other protective coatings to help prevent its deterioration.
Treated wood is made resistant to rot by: Dipping it in an alkaline solution containing copper. This
wood usually has a greenish colour. Heating it to a high temperature.
Some woods, such as cedar, have a natural resistance to rot.

Ceramics
![Page 27: The Technological World](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56813e03550346895da7dfac/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2.2 Ceramics A ceramic is a solid material obtained by
heating inorganic matter containing various compounds, usually oxides.
When the raw material is heated, the water evaporates, and the bonds between the constituent compounds are rearranged. A ceramic is always solid at room temperature.
STESTAST
![Page 28: The Technological World](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051620/56813e03550346895da7dfac/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Traditionally, most ceramic objects were made out of clay and sand. Sand is used for making glass.
Although other materials are now used, clay and sand are still widely used as they are both plentiful and inexpensive.

Properties of Ceramics The properties of ceramic objects vary with the
raw material and the method of baking. The following properties make ceramics a good
choice for many objects: Low electrical conductivity – used as insulators High degree of hardness – used as building materials
and cutting tools Heat resistance and low thermal conductivity – dishes
and cookware as well as thermal insulators Resistance to corrosion – used in ducts for fumes or
water Fragility – most are very fragile, but some can be
made so resilient they are used in engines

The Degradation and Protection of Ceramics Although ceramics are generally very durable,
some acids and bases can have a degrading effect on them
Archeologists have found ceramic pieces that are thousands of years old and are still in remarkably good condition.
Glazes can be used to protect the ceramics A thermal shock (a sudden change in
temperature) can cause damage to a ceramic object.

2.3 Metals and Alloys A metal is a material extracted from a
mineral ore. Metals are usually shiny in appearance and are good conductors of heat and electricity.
The pure metal is rarely used. An alloy is a mixture of a metal with one
or more other substances, which may be metallic or nonmetallic. The mixture of materials results in more desirable properties.

The Degradation and Protection of Metals and Alloys
The main cause for metal and alloy degradation is oxidation, where the material reacts with oxygen. This is commonly referred to as rusting.
The material can be protected by coating it with a substance that isolates it from the oxygen in the air: Metallic coatings: zinc, chrome, gold, silver, nickel,
aluminum, lead Other coatings: paint, enamel, grease, resin

Techniques That Enhance the Properties of Metals and Alloys Steel heat treatments are methods of
enhancing certain mechanical properties of steel through periods of heating.
These methods include: Quench hardening – hardens the steel Tempering – hardens the steel Annealing – returns the original properties by
removing the stress created by deforming (welding) All of these methods work by rearranging the
crystals within the material

2.4 Plastics Plastics are made from fossil fuels
(petroleum and natural gas) Monomers are extracted from the fossil
fuels and are arranged into long chains called polymers.
Plastic is a material made of polymers, to which other substances may be added to obtain certain desirable properties.
The invention of plastics lead to a revolution in world of materials

Types of Plastics A thermoplastic is a plastic that becomes soft
enough when heated to be molded or remolded and that hardens enough when cooled to hold its shape. Most plastic objects are made of this type. Most thermoplastics can be recycled
A thermosetting plastic is a plastic that remains permanently hard, even when heated. Often harder and more resilient than thermoplastics Include melamine and polyesters Cannot be recycled in Quebec

2.5 Composites A composite is formed by combining materials
from different categories to obtain a material with enhanced properties.
A composite has two main parts: the matrix and the reinforcement.
The matrix is the body of the material. It surrounds and supports the reinforcement and gives the object its shape.
The reinforcement is inserted into the matrix to strengthen the object.

The Degradation and Protection of Composites The degradation of composites usually
takes one of two forms:1. The deformation or fracture of the matrix or the
reinforcement.
2. The loss of adherence between the matrix and the reinforcement.
The speed of degradation depends on the type of matrix and reinforcement and the conditions of use.

3. Technical Drafting Before a technical object can be
manufactured, its shape and dimensions must be determined. A technical drawing must be created.
Technical drawings can be made by hand or on a computer.
To understand these drawings, we must be able to recognize and analyze different projections.

3.1 Projections A projection is the representation of a
three-dimensional object on a two-dimensional surface.
Two of the most commonly used projections are:
1. isometric
2. multiview.

Exploded Views An exploded view is a drawing in which
the various parts of the object are separated from one another so as to more easily visualize the component parts of the object.
The drawing will use an isometric projection drawn to scale.
The is accompanied by a list of parts indicating their names and the number of each part required.

Dimensional Tolerances Since machines, tools, instruments, and
the operators of machines are not perfect, the manufactured parts may be slightly different from the dimensions indicated on the drawing.
A dimensional tolerance is an indicator of the maximum acceptable difference between a specified measurement and the actual measurement on the finished object.
ESTAST

4. Manufacturing: Tools and Techniques Once the materials have been chosen and the
plans have been drawn, the object must be manufactured.
Manufacturing is a series of operations resulting in the creation of a technical object.
The various steps in the manufacturing of an object require the use of various instruments.

A tool is and instrument used in the manufacture of an object.
A hand tool is powered by human force. A machine tool is powered by forces
other than human. The manufacturing process is usually
divided into three parts:1. Measuring and laying out the parts2. Machining the parts3. Assembling and finishing the parts

4.1 Measuring and Laying Out The information needed for the
manufacturing of an object can be found in the detailed drawings of the object, or on its manufacturing process sheet.
The manufacturing process sheet is a document describing a series of operation to perform in the manufacturing of a given part and listing the materials and tools required.

Measuring out is the act of determining the size or position of a marking.
Laying out is the act of tracing markings or reference points onto a material.

4.2 Machining Machining consists of shaping a material
into a desired configuration. The first step in machining a part is to cut
it out roughly into its approximate shape. The most commons techniques used in
this step are cutting, drilling, tapping, threading, and bending.

Cutting consists of giving a material a desired shape.
Drilling consist of making a hole in a material. Tapping is a machining technique in which
screw threads are formed inside holes drilled into a material.
Threading is a machining technique in which screw threads are formed around a rod.
Bending is a machining technique in which a material is curved into a certain shape.

Inspection Throughout the machining phase, the
parts are measured and inspected to ensure that they match the required specifications.

4.3 Assembling and Finishing Assembling is a set of techniques by which
various parts are united to form a complete technical object. Techniques used for assembling include: nailing, screwing, bonding, riveting, bolting, and welding.
Finishing is a set of techniques that complete the manufacture of the parts of a technical object. The finish protects the materials from the elements and enhances the appearance of the object. Finishing techniques include: painting, vanishing, staining, and polishing.
