it is ductile. For hardened stainless steel it gets less ductile, but not brittle.

Does hardening of steel make it ductile or brittle?
more brittle
What is the difference between steel stainless steel and aluminum?
Steel is a composition of (primarily) Carbon and Iron. The more carbon, the harder, less ductile the steel. Stainless steel is Carbon, Iron and Chromium, that is galvinized (diped into zinc, which corrodes the outer layer of stainless steel,) making it stainless.
Is factor of safety of brittle material half of ductile material?
is factor of safety of brittle material half of ductile material
Is germanium ductile?
No, germanium is very brittle.
What is the difference between stainless steel and real stainless steel in refrigerators?
Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...
Is harder alloy steel is ductile or brittle?
brittle
Does hardening of steel make it ductile or brittle?
more brittle
Is stainless steel brittle?
Yes
Who is the Non ductile metals?
Cast iron, is one example of a non-ductile metal. Unlike ductile metals, copper, steel, aluminium - cast iron is too brittle to be reworked.
Is polythene ductile or brittle?
is polythene ductile or brittle?
What is a brittle alloy?
A-2 tool steel, D-2 tool steel, 420 stainless steel
What is the difference between stainless steel and regular steel?
steel isn't as refined but stainless is well stainless and shiny oohlala hot bod Stainless steel is an alloy (mixture) that has chromium mixed in. The chrome makes ordinary steel harder, more brittle, and more resistant to rust and stains, hense, stainless steel.
Is wood ductile or brittle?
Brittle
Is silicon brittle or ductile?
Silicon has a Brittle-to-Ductile transition at around ~500 C.
Is ductile and brittle the same thing?
Ductile and brittle are NOT the same thing. In fact, almost the opposite.
Is mild steel ductile or brittle?
the tensile strength, hardness and yield strength of steel depends on the amount of carbon in it. this is because amount of pearlite increases linearly with % of C in steel from 0-0.77%. Elongation (ductility) is caused by the ferrite in the steel which forms plastic deformation. there are two ways of treating steel: 1) quenching- this is when red hot steel is rapidly cooled to R.T. this traps most of the carbon in the steel forming pearlite that makes it hard and brittle 2)Normalising- this is when red hot steel is cooled slowly to R.T and allows carbon to dislocate and form ferrite which makes it ductile. this is how mild steel is manufactured.
What is in stainless steel?
Stainless steal is a mixture of carbon (2%) atoms and chromium (13%) and steel (85%). Stainless steal is more brittle than other metals because of the high carbon content. Chromium helps protect the steel from rust.
