Materials which can be drawn into wires are called ductile. Which of the following is not a ductile Materials?

Materials which can be drawn into wires are called ductile. Which of the following is not a ductile Materials? Correct Answer Sulphur

Ductility: A metal is said to be ductile when it can be drawn out into wires under tension without rupture.

Key Points

  • Wire drawing depends upon the ductility of a metal.
  • Copper and aluminium are good examples of ductile metals.​
  • The ductile material commonly used in engineering practice (in order of diminishing ductility) is mild steel, copper, aluminium, nickel, zinc, and tin.
  • Gold > Platinum > Silver> Copper > Aluminium > Nickel > Zinc > Tin
  • Non-metal break into pieces under tension. 
  • Sulphur is non-metal and brittle in nature.

Hence, we can conclude that Sulphur is not a ductile material.

Additional InformationBrittle- A material is brittle when it is stressed and does not deform, but breaks.
