Note: Examiner will set 9 questions in total, with two questions from each section and one
question covering all sections which will be Q.1. This Q.1 is compulsory and of short answer
type. Each question carries equal mark (20 marks). Students have to attempt 5 questions in
total.
SECTION A
Phase Rule:-Terminology, One component system (H2O system and CO2 - system), two
components system, Simple eutectic system (Pb-Ag), system with congruent melting point
(Zn - Mg), system with incongruent melting point (Na2SO4 -H2O),Cooling curves.
SECTION C
Corrosion and its prevention: Mechanism of Dry and wet corrosion (rusting of iron), types of
corrosion, galvanic corrosion, differential aeration corrosion, stress corrosion. Factors affecting
corrosion, preventive measures (proper design, Cathodic and Anodic protection, Electroplating,
tinning, galvanization.), Soil Corrosion, Microbiological Corrosion.
Lubrication and Lubricants: Introduction, mechanism of lubrication, classification of lubricants,
(Liquid, Grease (semi - solid) and solid (MoS2, Graphite). Additives for lubricants. Properties of
lubricants (Flash & Fire point, Saponification number, Iodine value, Acid value, Viscosity and
Viscosity index Aniline point, Cloud point and pour point) Numerical problems based of
viscosity Index. Biodegradable lubricants.
SECTION D
Polymers and polymerization: Introduction & Classification of polymers mechanism of
polymerization (Addition, condensation and co- ordination) effect of structure on properties
of polymers, Bio polymerization, Bio degradable polymerization, preparation properties and
technical application of thermo - plastics (PVC, PVA, Teflon)& thermosetting(PF,UF), Natural
elastomers and synthetic rubber (SBR,GR -N) . Silicones, Introduction to polymeric composites.
