0 the ability of a metal to be easily bent or stretched : --
High-performance steel will have more ductility.
Brass has an attractive yellow colour and in certain properties, such as its ductility, it is superior to bronze.
1 the ability of a substance such as a metal to be stretched or shaped without breaking --
A variety of organic chemicals are added to plating solutions for improving their deposit qualities and for enhancing properties like brightness, smoothness, ductility, etc.
The majority of car seat brackets and seat belt components are made of austempered steel because of its high strength and ductility.
Fine grain size gives eutectics both increased strength and increased ductility.
Further increase in the manganese content will increase both hardness and ductility.
Such a structure has few slip systems and leads to very low ductility and hence low fracture resistance.
Iron alloyed with various proportions of carbon gives low, mid and high carbon steels, with increasing carbon levels reducing ductility and toughness.
The reduction in fracture strain is generally temperature dependent and a ductility trough is observed as the test temperature is decreased.
He discusses why gold is unique in its malleability and ductility, far greater than any other metal.
