TECHNOLOGICAL MATERIALS,TOOLS AND WOOD

1. RAW MATERIALS

   • Raw materials are products extracted directly from nature.They may be of plant ,animal or mineral origin,air or water

2. NATURAL AND PROCESSED MATERIALS

   • Industrial processes are applied to raw materials , also know as natural resources , to turn them into processes materials
     • once the materials have been processed,they may be classified as either artificial or synthetic

3. THE PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS

   • environmental properties
     • toxicity
     • environmental hazard
     • recyclability
     • biodegradability
   • Mechanical properties
     • Hardness
     • Mechanical resistance
     • Toughness
     • Brittlenes
     • elasticity
     • plasticity
   • Thermal properties
     • expansion
     • thermal conductivity

4. TOOLS

   • tools may be defined as objects designed to carry out mechanical work and tasks
     • for many centuries,humans used their hands as tools, until their brains ability for abstract thought inspired them to use sticks and stones to make their actions more effective

5. WOOD

   • wood is the fibrous material that trees are made of it.It is made of two main substances :cellulose and lignin
