Explain how the properties and structure of different given engineering materials affect their behaviour in given engineering applications:
1) The Hep2O® push fit plumbing system uses fittings and pipe work manufactured from polybutylene (PB). Making reference to its properties and structure explain why this material is an effective substitute for traditional copper and brass.
"Your boss requests a recommendation on which process to use to make fillet welds on stainless steel rail tank cars with this material. Your heart
beating fast, you respond. "
A: Use HYPERFILL®. The cooling rate is acceptable for this material and productivity gains are important given the large size of the product.
B: "Use HYPERFILL®, for the same reasons as (A), BUT we need to change materials to a low carbon stainless steel (e.g. 304L) or we will get
corrosion failure in the HAZ."
C: "Use GMAW-P. For this material, this heat input is best. "
D: "Use GMAW-P, for the same reasons as (C), but we need to change materials to a low carbon stainless steel (e.g. 304L) or we will get
corrosion failure in the FZ."
