Want this question answered?
a brittle is something that breaks easily with out more opposition like bones for instance..
is factor of safety of brittle material half of ductile material
No, polytetrafluoroethylene (trade name: Teflon) is generally not brittle.
They are generally brittle.
They are generally brittle.
A rock may be brittle.
There are two.
A brittle material fractures without haven a large strain on beforehand. Examples are most ceramics, of extremely hard steel. The opposite is ductile.
No, aluminum is not a brittle material. Aluminum is a ductile material that has low density and melting point.
brittle. ceramics are generally brittle.
Very ductile material will often smear rather than cut during machining operations. Less ductile material (more brittle) will cut more easily.
It will break or fail. The type of failure will depend on how brittle/ductile it is. Brittle material will break cleanly, while ductile material will deform to varying degrees.
