CMT module 1-2 Flashcards
These are group of materials that contains carbon as the basic element
and includes materials like timber, plastics, asphalt, bitumen, etc.
Organic Group
These are group of materials that contains the siliceous materials
essentially containing silica, calcareous and argillaceous materials like clay.
