Doubtful. Ductile by definition means "not brittle, easily stretched, malleable".
it is ductile. For hardened stainless steel it gets less ductile, but not brittle.
Silicon has a Brittle-to-Ductile transition at around ~500 C.
The lithosphere, which consists of the crust and uppermost mantle, is considered hard and brittle, unlike the asthenosphere, where rock is considered ductile.
Ductile and brittle are NOT the same thing. In fact, almost the opposite.
No, silicon is a brittle material and not ductile.
The factors that determine whether a rock behaves as a brittle or ductile material include temperature, confining pressure, strain rate, mineral composition, and presence of pre-existing fractures. Higher temperatures and lower confining pressures tend to promote ductile behavior, while lower temperatures and higher confining pressures favor brittle behavior. The strain rate, mineral composition, and presence of pre-existing fractures can also influence whether a rock will exhibit brittle or ductile behavior.
brittle
A fluoride salt is brittle.
Sulfur is brittle.
The lithosphere is the physical layer of hard brittle rock. The remainder of the mantle that is not contained in the lithosphere is the layer of ductile rock.
