Er mwyn galw metel yn DUR rhaid i’r carbon fod o dan 1.8%, dros hyn mae’r metel yn galed iawn ond yn frau – esiampl Dur Bwrw Llwyd efo cynnwys carbon rhwng 3.2% a 3.5%. Mae’r diagram ar y dudalen nesaf yn dangos yr effaith mae carbon yn cael ar fetel.
To call a metal steel it must have less than 1.8% carbon, over this and it’s very hard but brittle,
example – grey cast irons has a carbon content of between 3.2% and 3.5 %. The diagram on the

METAL COLOUR CODING SYSTEM
Steel suppliers use a colour coding system to quickly identify a steel. The paint is
located at the ends of stock – however there is no international standard for colour coding
so each supplier use different colours- when ordering steel use the BS 970 coding

COPPER
Pure copper used for electrical components because of its high conductivity – second to
silver but a lot cheaper, however its too soft for mechanical work. Tough – pitch copper is used for mechanical tasks as its tougher due to the
inclusion of copper oxide. – properties– high strength, ductile, high electrical conductivity, resists corrosion, can
be soldered or brazed available in rods wire sheet and tubes.
ALUMINIUMPure aluminium is 33% the weight of steel,
but weaker and very difficult to join by soldering or welding, so it’s alloyed with other metals to
create stronger aluminium such as the components needed in aircraft.
Workshop aluminium contains up to 1% Silicon so its stronger and tougher easily joined and
machined.
BRASS
Alloy of copper and zinc, brass is attacked by salt water due to the zinc being attacked so Tin is added. Brass machines to a very high
finish – used a lot for plumbing and valve parts
METALAU ANFFERUS – dim Haearn / NON FERROUS METALS – no Iron
COPR

NON - METALS
CERAMICS
Very hard material available in 4 groups CRYSTALLINE (hardest – used to
make cutting tools) AMORPHOUS, BONDED and CEMENTS. They are
very strong in compression, but brittle because they are very hard –
used as cutting tools and can cut HSS tools. They can withstand
high temperatures and are used as furnace liners, and are excellent
electrical insulators hence their use as insulators on high voltage cables.
WOODSGood fatigue strength because of its ability to bend .
Three classes of timber
Softwood – cheaper than hardwood, used for machine packaging, pallets, building frames,
example – pine.
Hardwood – More expensive than soft, used for decorative work, flooring or exposed building
framework, examples – oak, mahogany
Processed – fairly cheap compared to natural woods and less likely to distort – many types available with many applications, examples –
plywood, MDF.

RECOGNISING PLASTICSAn easy guide!
ADNABOD PLASTIGIONY ffordd hawdd!
A composite materials is created by combining two or more materials that have very different properties.
The different materials work together to give the composite superior properties compared to the
individual properties of the original materials. Within the composite the different materials are identifiable,
they do not dissolve or blend into each other.
The three main types of composite materials are:
1. Particle filled composite ....Particles have approximately the same dimensions in all directions
in a matrix. An example of this type of composite is concrete
2. Discontinuous fibre- reinforced...fibres have limited
length/diameter ratio in a matrix. An example of this type of composite is Glass fibre
3. Continuous fibre-reinforced ... Continuous fibres are
constructed by winding or by using prepared layers. An example of this form of composite is the carbon fibre

DEFNYDDIAU SMART MATERIALS
Materials that have one or more properties that can be significantly changed in a controlled fashion by external stimuli, Some examples are as following:
Piezoelectric materials are materials that produce a voltage when stress is applied.
Shape memory alloys and shape memory polymers Change shape through temperature changes or stress changes
Magnetic shape memory alloys are materials that change their shape in response to a significant change in the magnetic field.
Temperature-responsive polymers are materials which undergo changes upon temperature.
Halochromic materials are commonly used materials that change their colour as a result of changing acidity. One suggested application is for paints that can change colour to indicate rust in the metal underneath them.
Electrochromic materials, which change their colour or opacity on the application of a voltage LCD’s
Thermochromic materials change in color depending on their temperature
Photochromic materials, which change colour in response to light—for example, light sensitive sunglasses that darken when exposed to bright sunlight.
Photomechanical materials change shape under exposure to light.
Self-healing materials have the intrinsic ability to repair damage due to normal usage, thus expanding the material's lifetime
Dielectric elastomers (DEs) are smart material systems which produce large strains (up to 300%) under the influence of an external electric field.
Gellir newid a rheoli deunyddiau sydd a priodweddau gwahanol gan ddigwyddiadau allanol. Dyma rai esiamplau:
Piezoelectric defnyddiau sy’n creu foltedd pan greir diriant
Aleoen cof neu polymerau cof yn gallu newid ffurf gyda gwres neu newidiadau diriant.
Ffurf cof magnetig mae’r aloeon yma yn newid eu ffurf gan ymateb i newid mewn maes magnetig
Polymerau sy’n ymateb i wres defnyddiau sy’n newid gyda gwres.
Halochromic – sef deunyddiau sy’n cael eu defnyddio lle mae angen newid lliw pan mae newid mewn asidrwydd. Un defnydd yma yw ei ddefnyddio i ddangos pa bryd mae metel yn rhydu.
Electrochromig sef deunyddiau sy’n newid eu lliw pan gyflwynir foltedd
Thermochromicg - sef deunyddiau sy’n newid lliw yn ddibynol ar eu tymheredd.
Photochromig – sef deunyddiau sy’n newid lliw gyda golau – e.e. sbectol haul sy’n tywyllu.
Deunyddiau Mecanyddol – yn newid ffurf gyda golau.
Deunyddiau adnewyddol – yn gallu trwsio eu hunain ac felly yn ehangu eu bywyd.
Elastomerau Dielectric (DE) - yn gallu ehangu o fewn maes electroneg (hyd at 300%)
