Materials properties
Physical
strengh
shear
the deformation of a material substance in which parallel internal surfaces slide past one another
flexion
describes a bending movement that decreases the angle between a segment and its proximal segment.
compresion
the result of the subjection of a material to compressive stress
tension
a force related to the stretching of an object
torsion
Deformation of a body by the action of two opposing forces that act in parallel planes,
mechanical
thermal properties
fusibility
some materials changed from solid to liquid when their temperature is increased
expansion
when the temperature increase the material expands
conductivity
is a measure of a material's ability to conduct an electric current
electrical properties
semiconductors
is a material that has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a metal and an insulator.
insulators
a substance that resists electricity
conductors
is an object, substance or material allowing the flow of an electric charge
density
optical
transparent
is a superset of transparency
opaque
is the degree to which light is not allowed to travel through
Chemical
corrosion
is a natural process, which converts a refined metal to a more chemically-stable form, such as its oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide
oxidation
is a chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of atoms are changed.
Ecological
biodegrability
is the breakdown of organic matter by microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi.
toxicity
is the degree to which a chemical substance or a particular mixture of substances can damage an organism
recycable
is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects.
Technological
resilience
is the ability of a material to absorb energy when deformed, and release that energy upon unloading
toughness
is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing
hardness
is the ability of material to put resistance against the entry of foreign bodies
malleability
Is the metal ability to be deformed with cold deformation
elasticity
is the ability of material to return to its original shape
