PLASTICITY - DUCTILITY -MALLEABILITY PLASTICITY : Is a mechanical behavior characteristic of certain anelastic materials consisting of the capacity to deform permanently and irreversibly when subjected to stresses above their elastic range, above their elastic limit DUCTILITY: Is the property that some metals and allies ha ve, when under the action of a force, they can be stretched without being twisted (metal sheets) MALLEABILITY: The ability to be easily changed into a new shape (metal threads) One example of sustainable material is steel. One 96% of the steel is recyclable and it’s a very useful material and obviously it’s a material with lots of plasticity
