ductile materials

Ductile materials are those that can undergo significant deformation, like stretching or bending, without breaking. They can absorb energy and change shape under stress, making them ideal for applications that require toughness and flexibility. Metals such as copper, aluminum, and steel are common ductile materials. Unlike brittle materials that snap or shatter easily, ductile materials offer durability and versatility, allowing them to be shaped or formed into various structures while maintaining their integrity under stress.
