Compressive Strength, Mx. stress (load) a material ca withstand before failure in compression., Tensile Strength, Max. stress (load) a material can withstand before failure in tension., Ductility, The ability of a material to be stretched w/o fracturing and be formed into shapes such as very thin sheets or very thin wire., Brittleness, The property of being easily cracked snapped or broken. It is the opposite of ductility and therefor the material has little plasticity and will fail under loading w/o stretching of changing shape., Toughness, The ability to absorb a sudden sharp load w/o/ causing permanent deformation or failure. Tough materials require high elasticity., Stiffness, Ability of an object to resist deformation in response to an applied force., Hardness, The ability to resist erosion or surface wear. Used when surfaces move across each other., Durability, The property to withstand stress (load) for a prolonged time..
