Brittle materials are substances that are characterized by a tendency to fracture or break into pieces under stress without significant plastic deformation. They lack the ability to deform plastically and instead break suddenly when the stress exceeds a critical value. Examples of brittle materials include ceramics, glass, and certain types of metals at low temperatures.

Why the machining of brittle material is easy than ductile material?

Very ductile material will often smear rather than cut during machining operations. Less ductile material (more brittle) will cut more easily.


What will happen to a material if the stress exceeds the ultimate strength?

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.


Is brittle metal or non-metal?

Brittle is neither a metal or nonmetal, it is a physical property of materials.Brittle is a property of a material. Most metals are not brittle but ductile and maleable.
