Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

The examination is carried out in oral form.
Subject is taught as lectures with voluntary attendance. According recent plan of study program there is no form of compulsory tasks in this subject.

Aims

Target audience is presented by students aimed on materials´ chemistry. Goal of the lecture is to introduce real metallic structures in the context of previously taught chemical disciplines. The secondary goal is then the knowledge of most important properties of materials, their practical use and systematic categorization of both ferrous and nonferrous alloys.
Úspěšný absolvent předmětu dokáže zejména:

1) Na základě chemického složení materiálu popsat fázovou strukturu, určit chemickou povahu přítomných fází v zadané slitině,
2) Vysvětlit rozdíly ve struktuře hlavních typů ocelí a z jejich normového označení určit základní užitné vlastnosti (svařitelnost, kalitelnost, mez pevnosti, korozivzdornost),
3) Popsat specifika mosazí, bronzí, duralů a jiných slitin neželeznýh kovů,
4) Popsat základní postupy při výzkumu kovových materiálů (metalografie, mikroskopie s analýzou, korozní zkoušky, mechanické vlastnosti).
