Best Answer

Properties of the material help decide if the material should be used or not. Below are key properties to think about when selecting a material for use:

1)Malleability - The ability to reshape a material (e.g metal, plastic) without cracking.

2)Conductivity - The ability for a material to conduct electricity.

3) Hardness - I'm sure you can guess what this is! (The ability of a material to resist scratching or wearing)
