About materials and their properties mind maps
GoConqr OriginalMaterials and Their Properties mind maps
These maps arrange material families and their properties in branches. Resistant Materials brings woods, metals, plastics and composites together, making it a useful starting point for seeing how the families are grouped. For a closer look at metals, open Ferrous Metals, which links types of steel with properties and uses.
Other maps let you follow a particular topic. Adhesives separates natural and synthetic examples, while Modern and Smart Materials includes pigments that respond to heat or release stored light. There are also maps on finishing techniques and materials testing.
Revise with a map
Follow one branch at a time, then cover the detail and try to recall the examples or properties. Return to the map to check what you remembered. When you want a different way to practise, switch to a quiz or flashcards on the unit page. Choose a topic and follow its branches.
Frequently asked questions
Which mind map should I start with?
Start with Resistant Materials if you want to see several material families in one map. It groups woods, metals, plastics and composites. If you are revising a specific material instead, try Ferrous Metals for examples of steel or the map on plastic materials.
What topics do the mind maps cover?
The maps cover material families including timber, metals, plastics and composites. They also look at properties, adhesives, finishing techniques and materials testing. Modern and Smart Materials includes pigments that change colour in response to heat and pigments that release stored light.
Are the mind maps free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open and study without an account. The maps were made by GoConqr users. A free account also lets you make your own mind maps, quizzes, flashcards and notes, and save your quiz scores.
