A term used to describe metals soft enough to be stretched, drawn or hammered without breaking.

The ability of a substance to be drawn out to form a thin wire.

ductility. Compare with malleable. Capable of being drawn into wire. Metals are typically ductile materials.

Capable of being stretched into a thin wire. A form of tenacity. Ductility is the capability of being able to stretched into a thin wire.

Can be drawn into wire. See What Makes Gold Gold?.

Easily bent. Contrast with brittle.

capable of being shaped or bent or drawn out; "ductile copper"; "malleable metals such as gold"; "they soaked the leather to made it pliable"; "pliant molten glass"; "made of highly tensile steel alloy"

Ductile is the ability of a substance to be hammered thin.

The physical property exhibited by gold which allows it to be drawn out into fine wire.

the ability to be drawn into wire form

Describes a substance that can be stretched or drawn out into thin wire. Gold and copper are very ductile.

can be drawn or stretched into wire and other shapes.

A ductile substance is easily pulled or stretched into a thin wire. gold is the most ductile metal.

Capable of being bent or molded into various shapes without breaking.

capable of being stetched, drawn, or hammered without breaking – not brittle.

Capable of being drawn out; of low rigidity and so able to flow slowly.

Workable. Material, as metal, able to be stretched or hammered thin without breaking, something not brittle, easily molded.

If a material is ductile it is capable of being drawn into thin sheets or wires without breaking. Classifying materials

Permitting plastic (or permanently) prior to eventual fracture.

Describes material capable of sustaining not less than 5% elongation before it fractures.
