Nowadays, many cooking utensils are made of polymeric materials. However, people believe that heating plastic utensils would cause harm such as releasing toxic substances. Hence, people are looking for other alternatives to replace plastic. Choose ONE cooking utensil (spatula) and identify the suitable material that will satisfy its criteria. Justify your answer. Your discussion must include the interrelationship between structure-properties-processing of the selected cooking utensil.
Glass fibres provide longitudinal reinforcement for a nylon material subject to tensile load. The fibre diameter is 20 μm and the volume fraction is 0.45. (Take Young’s modulus of glass fibres as 70 000 MPa and nylon as 2800 MPa)(i)Calculate the Young’s modulus of composite(ii)Determine the tensile strength in the glass fibre if the tensile strength of the composites and matrix is 14 MPa and 11.8 MPa, respectively

- PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLYarrow_forwardWhat is section property? Give its formula?arrow_forwardSuppose you're selecting materials for a frictional braking system which will be used to bring a moving body to a stop. It is imperative that you choose a braking surface material which will not thermally degrade as mechanical kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy during the braking process. You have a list of candidate materials for your braking system which includes maximum permissible average power dissipation. In order to relate average power dissipation rate to your system's mechanical properties (and select an appropriate material), what information will you need? mass of the body your braking system is decelerating maximum speed of your body at the time the braking system is applied duration of the braking process O all of the abovearrow_forward

- Turbine blades used in Jet engines can be made from materials such as nickel-based superalloys. Principle as such, ceramic materials such as zirconia or other alloys based on steel can even be used. In some cases, with a thermal barrier coating of blades to minimize exposure of Blade material to high temperatures it may also need to be coated. When selecting a material for the turbine blade and successfully in a turbine engine what design parameters do you consider for the coating that will work? Different parts of the engine are different please note that it is exposed to temperatures and not all blades are exposed to relatively high operating temperatures. What can such problems occur?arrow_forwardChoose a beverage other than water, identify and name three material properties that are needed for a suitable container, then suggest a good material for the container that fulfills these requirements , so it can be marketed and sold in supermarkets.arrow_forwardM2arrow_forward
