Smart and modern materials Textiles Home Learning Project Year 8 Estelle Crossley Smart materials Smart materials have properties that react to changes in their environment. This means that one of their properties can be changed by temperature‚ light‚ pressure or electricity. This change is reversible and can be repeated many times. There are a range of different smart materials. Each offer different properties that can be changed. Modern materials with new properties are excellent

detailed study on materials used for automotive bumper beams has been carried out with the key objectives of identifying the key property requirements‚ the currently used materials and alternative candidate materials. This report presents a detailed analysis of their respective advantages‚ drawbacks and a comparative ranking of these materials. The best alternative material has then been identified and a suitable manufacturing process for the bumper beam (using the best alternative material) has been described

people have become their own killers. From countryside to the cities‚ the use of plastic materials has greatly increased. In the grocery stores‚ tons of products are packaged using plastic materials. About 30 years ago‚ in countries like Uganda‚ there were no plastic bags used for packaging and carrying items. Items in the shops were packed in biodegradable paper bags. In the markets‚ people used local materials like banana leaves and fibers‚ and sorghum leaves for carrying and packaging items. The

It has recently been found that material hardship impacts the development of a child. Specifically‚ authors Huang and Sherraden (2016) found that material hardship has a negative association with the social-emotional development of young children. Although it is generally known that different aspects impact the physical and emotional development of children‚ it is unclear as to which have a direct effect on a child’s brain development.

and resistant to moisture and processing chemicals‚ while remaining mechanically strong‚ resistant to tearing‚ flexible‚ and dimensionally stable. Three plastics have been widely used as a motion picture film base: • Cellulose nitrate was the first material used. Discontinued in the 1950s because it was highly flammable‚ cellulose nitrate is chemically unstable if stored in conditions that are too damp (it can decompose) or too hot (it can self-ignite). • Cellulose acetates were developed to replace
