Voorbeelden van ductility

• Germanium adds ductility - the ability to stretch without breaking.

• Gold is usually alloyed with base metals for use in jewellery, altering its hardness and ductility, melting point, color and other properties.

• Gold is also used in electrical contacts because of its resistance to corrosion, electrical conductivity, ductility and lack of toxicity.

• Copper, by virtue of its inherent high conductivity, ductility and strength, has always been the ideal material for conducting electricity.

• At the same time, its high degree of ductility allows it to accommodate quite readily into sites of comparatively low or lower strain within a surrounding, deforming, multilayered rock succession.

• Besides sliding electrical contacts, gold is also used in electrical contacts because of its resistance to corrosion, electrical conductivity, ductility and lack of toxicity.

• Oxygen-free coppers are used to resist hydrogen embrittlement when extensive amounts of cold work is needed, and for applications requiring higher ductility (e.g., telecommunications cable).

• Local ductility is designated as the localized elongation at the eventual fracture zone.

• The relatively low ductility is due to the various microcrystalline and amorphous structures that limit plastic deformation, i.e. the ability to stretch without fracture.

• The center strands are of steel for the strength required to support the weight without stretching the aluminium due to its ductility.

• Tempers determine the ductility of the metal, and therefore how well it forms and will hold its shape without additional support.

• He discusses why gold is unique in its malleability and ductility, far greater than any other metal.

• The reduction in fracture strain is generally temperature dependent and a ductility trough is observed as the test temperature is decreased.

• Iron alloyed with various proportions of carbon gives low, mid and high carbon steels, with increasing carbon levels reducing ductility and toughness.

• Such a structure has few slip systems and leads to very low ductility and hence low fracture resistance.

• Further increase in the manganese content will increase both hardness and ductility.

• Fine grain size gives eutectics both increased strength and increased ductility.

• The majority of car seat brackets and seat belt components are made of austempered steel because of its high strength and ductility.

• A variety of organic chemicals are added to plating solutions for improving their deposit qualities and for enhancing properties like brightness, smoothness, ductility, etc.
