A measure of a material's tendency to shatter upon impact?

The only materials which shatter on impact are polymers, glass and fibred materials such as wood, though these to a much lesser extent. The measure of a material's tendency to shatter is the crystallinity of the chains or fibres used to make it up.Crystallinity is the proportion of crystalline regions, where the chains or fibres are lined up in a regular pattern and so are brittle, over the whole substance. The other type of region is an amorphous region, where the chains or fibres are aligned randomly.A material is more likely to shatter at lower temperatures. There is a certain temperature, referred to as Tg, below which a material is brittle, or glassy and cannot bend at all.
