ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY (SH 103): Engineering Materials

An Introduction to Engineering Materials

Welcome to Chapter 7 of Engineering Chemistry (SH 103). This chapter explores the structure, properties, and applications of various Engineering Materials.

A major focus is on Polymers, both natural and synthetic, including their polymerization processes (addition and condensation) and specific examples like Epoxy resin, Kevlar, and conducting polymers. We will also examine composites, such as fiber-reinforced polymers.

The second part of this chapter covers Cement, a critical construction material. We will delve into the complex chemistry of its hydration and setting processes, which are essential for understanding its strength and durability in engineering applications.
