Mechanical Properties of Materials Ductility 9 &he abilit, of a material to be drawn or e4truded. 7ome e4am#les of ductile materials are low carbon steels, Co##er. (rass and *rou6ht iron. Brittleness 9 &he tendenc, of a material to brea: easil, or suddenl, under a force or shoc: loadin6. 7ome e4am#les of brittle materials are Cast ron, some #ol,mers and ceramics and hi6h carbon steels. Malleability 9 &he abilit, of a material to be deformed and sha#ed b, the a##lication of force such as rollin6 or for6in6. 7ome e4am#les of malleable materials are %old, Co##er and ;ead. Elasticity < &he abilit, of a material to deform or chan6e sha#e under a force and then return to its ori6inal sha#e. 7ome e4am#les of elastic materials are "ubber, mild steel and some /lastics. Plasticity 9 &he abilit, of a material to stretch when a force is a##lied then not return to its ori6inal sha#e. = #lastic material is /lasticine. Hardness 9 &he abilit, of a material to resist indentation, scratchin6 or abrasion b, another material. 7ome hard materials are Diamond and hi6h carbon steel.

Alloys =n allo, is a material that has metallic #ro#erties and is com#osed of two or more chemical elements where at least one is a metal. *e ma:e allo,s to tr, and 6et the best #ro#erties from all the in6redients in the allo,. 7ome common allo,s are, Brass = mi4ture of Co##er and >inc, it has the same #ro#erties as Co##er but is harder. Bron e 9 = mi4ture of Co##er and &in, it has the same #ro#erties as Co##er but is stron6er and resists corrosion. Pe!ter 9 = mi4ture of Co##er, &in and =ntimon,, it is harder than Co##er and more corrosion resistant. "teel 9 = mi4ture of ron and Carbon, it is less brittle than iron and has man, more uses after heat treatment. "tainless "teel = mi4ture of 7teel and Chromium, it is used in a##lications where there is no corrosion #ermitted such as food manufacturin6 machiner,.
