Plutonium is a very strange material. Its malleability, volume, and brittleness all change, depending on its crystallographic phase (there are six at ambient pressure and a seventh under pressure).
The simplest answer is yes, plutonium is very malleable, but only in its delta phase.

Is plutonium melleable?
Plutonium is malleable only if it is alloyed.
Is polonium ductile?
This will help you. Phosphorus is not ductile or malleable. For one its a gas. But at room temperature, it hardens. Even when it hardens phosphorus isn't ductile or malleable because it is very brittle.
Is neodymium malleable or non malleable?
It is malleable.
Is the element mercury malleable or not malleable?
malleable
What are common compounds that contain plutonium?
Some plutonium chemical compounds; plutonium dioxide, plutonium nitride, plutonium carbide, plutonium nitrate, plutonium trifluoride, plutonium chloride, etc.
Is gold brittle or malleable?
Gold is extremely malleable.
How malleable is mercury?
Mercury is considered to be malleable. However, it is only malleable when it is in solid form. As a liquid, it is not malleable.
What are some example of plutonium?
Examples are: plutonium metal, isotope Pu-238, plutonium dioxide, plutonium sulfide, plutonium nitrate, plutonium carbide etc.
Is hydrogene malleable?
no it is not malleable
What is the common compound in plutonium?
Examples: PuO2, plutonium nitrate, plutonium carbide, plutonium chloride, plutonium fluoride etc.
Is xenon a malleable or non malleable?
Xenon is a gas at STP. Gases are not malleable.
What are the chemical properties of plutonium?
Plutonium chemical properties:- plutonium is a reactive metal: the Pauling electronegativity is 1,28- plutonium is flammable- plutonium has six allotropes- plutonium in compounds has valences from 2 to 7- plutonium is very toxic
