Properties of materials

• Conductivity: Conducts heat or electricity
• Insulation: Retains heat or electricity
• Biodegradability: can be broken down by living organisms
• Malleability: Can be beaten or streached out in all directions without breaking
• Elasticity: Can be deformed and will return to its original shape
• Ductility: can be streched out into a wire
• hardness: resists a dent or scratch
• Strength: resists a constant force without breaking or bending
