Ductility refers to a metal or alloy's ability to retain integrity despite a shape change. It is a trait that says whether a metal or alloy can retain its durability and freedom even when its shape is altered.

Ductility is the ability of a material to resist breaking when stretched. For example, when pulling taffy apart, it breaks at the limit of it's tensile strength. Since it can be stretched considerably before breaking, it is said to be ductile.
