DT Materials Mindmap

1. Metals

   • Steel
     • Alloy of iron and carbon, very high tensile srtrenght, high hardness
     • Expensive
   • Alluminum
     • durable, lightweight and malleable

2. Fabrics

   • Natural
     • Cotton
       • Soft, comfortable, durable, easily washed
     • Linen
       • very breathable
       • Poor elasticity
     • Wool
       • Dirt+water proof, Warm,
       • Itchy, shrinks when washed at high temperatures
   • Synthetic
     • Nylon
       • elastic
       • Ages quickly

3. Air

   • Compressed
   • Normal pressure

4. Plastics

   • Thermoplastics
     • Acrylic, nilon, polyesterene
       • Modellable at high temperatures and retains the shape
       • easily breakable
   • Thermosets
     • Aren't malleable even if put at very high temperatures
     • unlikely to break, very resistent

5. Water
