Resist Rust Steel is known for rusting, but steel garage doors don't usually succumb to this problem. For one thing, the color is factory finished so it acts as a protective coating. If you scratch the paint off, you'll want to repair it so the bare metal doesn't begin to rust. As long as the door is cared for and the paint is intact, it should last for years without developing rust that causes squeaky operations or eyesores. Steel Doors Offer Excellent Security There's a reason steel is used for

Titanium appears on the periodic table under the symbol Ti. The transition metal is known for being very strong. When a person thinks of an element that is very strong, they also think that the item would be very heavy. Titanium is different; the element is very strong, but it is also very light weight. Since Titanium is so strong, it is named after the strong Greek mythology Titans (History of Titanium). The element, Titanium, is one of the most abundant elements. The metallic element is found

Anyway, people don't know the name of it. Well, we refer to the Grommet here. Are you confused now? OK, go to your bathroom and take a closer look at the bathtub curtain! The curtain moves along the bar on which it is on thanks to a few metal rings. We call those metal rings; Grommet. You can see similar items on your shoes. Anyway, those are small items, and we usually call them eyelets. The whole purpose of this small piece is reinforcing and protecting the hole. Without the eyelets, the shoelace

There are also some elements that are not a part of any type of family. These elements are mostly other metals that are located right after the transition metals. There are some nonmetals that are included in this group. Some of these nonmetals include silicon, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. All elements in this group are some what reactive. Nitrogen is the most common element. Compounds using nitrogen consist of silver nitrate, potassium nitrate, and nitric oxide. Silver nitrate is used in many

Brianna Cross 10/28/16 Chemistry Essay Arsenic Arsenic is one of the most toxic elements that can be found on Earth. Arsenic has a symbol of As and an atomic number of 33. It is a metalloid which gives it both metal and nonmetal characteristics. Arsenic has many allotropes, but the gray form is important for industry. The three main allotropes are metallic gray, black, and yellow. Gray arsenic is brittle and has a low hardness (based on the Moh’s hardness scale) yet a high density. Yellow

made up of two different chemical elements, most of which are metal. There are some non metal alloys components such as the various forms Hydroxides and Carbonates. The most important metallic component of an alloy is called a main metal, parent metal and the base metal. The other component of an alloy can be either metal or nonmetal. Although alloys can be a compound, they are usually a solid solution. Both, the first uncombined and metal, Gold was is used for fashion. Copper being the next uncombined

Non-ferrous metals were the first metals used by humans for metallurgy. Gold, silver and copper existed in their native crystalline yet metallic form. These crystals, though rare, are enough to attract the attention of humans. Less susceptible to oxygen than most other metals, they can be found even in weathered outcroppings. Copper was the first metal to be forged; it was soft enough to be fashioned into various objects by cold forging, and it could be melted in a crucible. Gold, silver and copper

Aluminium is extracted from the metal ore bauxite. Bauxite is mined in various mines across Australia. There are two bauxite mines currently operating in Alcoa, Western Australia. These mines are the Huntly mine, located near Dwellingup and the Willowdale mine located east of Waroona. Mining and Extraction process of Aluminium Aluminium is mined on the surface of the crust. The extraction is done by electrolysis. Aluminium oxide has a high melting point at over 2 000°C, as a result it is expensive

electrical stimulus. While platinum is used as the conductive material because it has low chemical reactivity, is highly corrosion resistant, biocompatible, flexible, and does not display stimulus-induced corrosion resistance like most other conductive metals, meaning it should last the lifetime of the patient. These properties simply make it the greatest available conductive material for this application, and by coating it in silicone you remove any potential unwanted exposure to the surrounding
