Material Properties

Optical

Opaque

the degree to which light is not allowed to travel through.

Translucent

it allows light to pass through.

Transparent

is the physical property of allowing light to pass through the material without being scattered.

Density

is its mass per unit volume.

Electrical properties

Conductors

is an object or type of material that allows the flow of an electrical current in one or more directions.

Insulators

a substance that resists electricity.

Semiconductors

A semiconductor material has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a metal, like copper, gold, etc. and an insulator, such as glass.

Thermal properties

Conductivity

a measure of its ability to conduct electricity.

Expansion

an increase in the market value of an economy over time

Fusibility

is the ease at which the material can be fused together or to the temperature or amount of heat required to melt a material.

Mechanical

Strength

Torsion

is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque.

Tension

a force related to the stretching of an object (the opposite of compression)

Compresion

the result of the subjection of a material to compressive stress.

Flexion

Shear

Corrosion

is a natural process, which converts a refined metal to a more chemically-stable form, such as its oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide.

Oxidation

a chemical reaction in which electrons are lost.

Recycable

Is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects.

Toxicity

Is the degree to which a chemical substance or a particular mixture of substances can damage an organism.

Biodegrability

Is the breakdown of organic matter by microorganisms.

Elasticity/Plasicity

Elasticity is a measure of a variable's sensitivity to a change in another variable, and plasticity in physics and engineering, the propensity of a solid material to undergo permanent deformation under load

Malleability/Ductivity

Malleability is a substance's ability to deform under pressure, and is a measure of a material's ability to undergo significant plastic deformation before rupture.

Handness(Duresa)

Is a measure of the resistance to localized plastic deformation induced by either mechanical indentation or abrasion.

Toughness

is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.

Resilience
