Ability of a material to change its form into sheets or films when the material is compressed. Property of a material to melt (change from solid to liquid state) at the melting point. Some materials are easier and cheaper to recycle than others. Resistance of a material to resist permanent forces (traction strength, compression strength, bending strength, torsion strength and shear strength) without breaking. Capacity of some materials, such as iron, to attract or repel metals. Ability of some materials to adopt the form of a mould. Property of a material to change its composition under the presence of water or oxygen Ability of a material to change its form into filaments or wires when the material is stretched. Ability of a material to be shaped by using a cutting tool or machine.
