This transformation has everything to do with the cooling rate of the material. A slower cooling rate will yield a tougher more ductile material structure, and a more rapid cooling rate will yield a hard and brittle material. A slower release of energy will give more space between the atoms in the material, faster energy losses gives a more dense atomic structure.
What else can I help you with?
Is stainless steel ductile or brittle?
it is ductile. For hardened stainless steel it gets less ductile, but not brittle.
Is silicon brittle or ductile?
Silicon has a Brittle-to-Ductile transition at around ~500 C.
Is diamond a ductile material?
No, diamond is not considered a ductile material. It is actually quite brittle and can shatter easily under impact due to its crystal structure.
Is ductile and brittle the same thing?
Ductile and brittle are NOT the same thing. In fact, almost the opposite.
Is silicon a ductile?
No, silicon is a brittle material and not ductile.
Can a rock unit be ductile and brittle?
Doubtful. Ductile by definition means "not brittle, easily stretched, malleable".
Is harder alloy steel is ductile or brittle?
brittle
Is fluoride brittle or ductile?
A fluoride salt is brittle.
Is sulfur malleable ductile or brittle?
Sulfur is brittle.
Does hardening of steel make it ductile or brittle?
more brittle
Is factor of safety of brittle material half of ductile material?
is factor of safety of brittle material half of ductile material
Are rocks nears earth's surface generally brittle or ductile?
They are generally brittle.
