Materials 3.0 / 5 based on 1 rating ? PhysicsMaterialsASEdexcel Created by: GCreated on: 09-03-13 09:00 Elastic Returns to original shape 1 of 10 Stiff Requires a large force to produce a small deformation 2 of 10 Brittle Cracks and breaks without any plastic deformation beforehand 3 of 10 Plastic Remains deformed when the load is removed 4 of 10 Durable Properties do not worsen with repeated loading and unloading 5 of 10 Tough Can absorb a lot of energy from impacts without/before breaking, even while deforming plastically 6 of 10 Ductile Can be deformed plastically under tension, can be pulled into a longer shape 7 of 10 Strong Means a large force is needed to break it, though this will depend on its size 8 of 10 Malleable Can be deformed plastically under compression; can be hammered into a sheet 9 of 10 Hard Not readily scratched or indented 10 of 10
