Metallic Materials
o Metals and alloys are commonly divided

into two classes: ferrous metals that

contain a large percentage of iron, such

as steels and cast irons and non-ferrous

metals that do not contain iron or contain

only a relatively small amount of iron.

o Examples of non-ferrous metals are

aluminium, copper, zinc, titanium, and

nickel.
