Material Properties Flashcards
What are Physical Properties?
The Actual Make-up and matter that forms a material.
What are Mechanical Properties?
The way a material reacts to External Forces
What is Density?
Mass Per Unit Volume OR MDV
What is Fusibility?
The Ability to change into molten (melted Metals) or liquid state when heated
What is Electrical Conductivity?
All Materials that resists the flow of electricity to some extent.
What is Thermal Properties?
Material Reacts to Heat
What is Electrical Insulation?
High Resistance to the flow of electricity
What is Semi-Conductors?
Range Between E-Conductivity And E-Insulation
What is Plasticity?
Materials that permanently change in shape without damage
What is Malleability?
The ability to withstand deformation by compression
What is Strength?
The Ability to withstand a particular force
What is Ductility?
The ability to Stretch / Drawn-Out
What is Toughness?
The ability to withstand sudden impact
What is Hardness?
The Ability to withstand Abrasive impact
What is Stability?
The ability to resist change in shape and size (due to environmental)
