During April, Schaeffler would like to “test your knowledge” with some interesting quizzes in areas such as historic pioneering deeds; sustainability and vehicles with the ‘wow’ factor. Our first quiz takes a look at materials.
From stone, iron, and wood to steel, plastics, and carbon, through to the new possibilities opened up by biomaterials.
In prehistoric times, tools were made from stone; in the Middle Ages, wood was the most important material. Materials have always played an important role in industrialisation and have always evolved. Currently, biomaterials are very popular as a sustainable alternative to plastic, something all engineers have to factor in these days.
The world of materials has always been an exciting realm. How well do you know your way around? Test your knowledge in our tech quiz!
