Productile :: Productile (a.) Capable of being extended or prolonged; extensible; ductile.

Silver :: Silver (n.) A soft white metallic element, sonorous, ductile, very malleable, and capable of a high degree of polish. It is found native, and also combined with sulphur, arsenic, antimony, chlorine, etc., in the minerals argentite, proustite, pyrargyrite, ceragyrite, etc. Silver is one of the noble metals, so-called, not being easily oxidized, and is used for coin, jewelry, plate, and a great variety of articles. Symbol Ag (Argentum). Atomic weight 107.7. Specific gravity 10.5..

Tilt :: Tilt (v. t.) To hammer or forge with a tilt hammer; as, to tilt steel in order to render it more ductile..

Facile :: Facile (a.) Easily persuaded to good or bad; yielding; ductile to a fault; pliant; flexible.

Inductile :: Inductile (a.) Not ductile; incapable of being drawn into threads, as a metal; inelastic; tough..

Gold :: Gold (v. t.) A metallic element, constituting the most precious metal used as a common commercial medium of exchange. It has a characteristic yellow color, is one of the heaviest substances known (specific gravity 19.32), is soft, and very malleable and ductile. It is quite unalterable by heat, moisture, and most corrosive agents, and therefore well suited for its use in coin and jewelry. Symbol Au (Aurum). Atomic weight 196.7..

Eager :: Eager (a.) Brittle; inflexible; not ductile.

Inductility :: Inductility (n.) The quality or state of being inductile.

Tilting :: Tilting (n.) The process by which blister steel is rendered ductile by being forged with a tilt hammer.

Sequacious :: Sequacious (a.) Hence, ductile; malleable; pliant; manageable..

Ductile :: Ductile (a.) Capable of being elongated or drawn out, as into wire or threads..

Tensile :: Tensile (a.) Capable of extension; ductile; tensible.

Cadmium :: Cadmium (n.) A comparatively rare element related to zinc, and occurring in some zinc ores. It is a white metal, both ductile and malleable. Symbol Cd. Atomic weight 111.8. It was discovered by Stromeyer in 1817, who named it from its association with zinc or zinc ore..

Stretch :: Stretch (v. i.) To be extended, or to bear extension, without breaking, as elastic or ductile substances..

Lead :: Lead (n.) One of the elements, a heavy, pliable, inelastic metal, having a bright, bluish color, but easily tarnished. It is both malleable and ductile, though with little tenacity, and is used for tubes, sheets, bullets, etc. Its specific gravity is 11.37. It is easily fusible, forms alloys with other metals, and is an ingredient of solder and type metal. Atomic weight, 206.4. Symbol Pb (L. Plumbum). It is chiefly obtained from the mineral galena, lead sulphide..

Tensible :: Tensible (a.) Capable of being extended or drawn out; ductile; tensible.

Platinum :: Platinum (n.) A metallic element, intermediate in value between silver and gold, occurring native or alloyed with other metals, also as the platinum arsenide (sperrylite). It is heavy tin-white metal which is ductile and malleable, but very infusible, and characterized by its resistance to strong chemical reagents. It is used for crucibles, for stills for sulphuric acid, rarely for coin, and in the form of foil and wire for many purposes. Specific gravity 21.5. Atomic weight 194.3. Symbol Pt. Fo

Irretractile :: Irretractile (a.) Not tractile or ductile.

Magnesium :: Magnesium (n.) A light silver-white metallic element, malleable and ductile, quite permanent in dry air but tarnishing in moist air. It burns, forming (the oxide) magnesia, with the production of a blinding light (the so-called magnesium light) which is used in signaling, in pyrotechny, or in photography where a strong actinic illuminant is required. Its compounds occur abundantly, as in dolomite, talc, meerschaum, etc. Symbol Mg. Atomic weight, 24.4. Specific gravity, 1.75..

Isodulcite :: Isodulcite (n.) A white, crystalline, sugarlike substance, obtained by the decomposition of certain glucosides, and intermediate in nature between the hexacid alcohols (ductile, mannite, etc.) and the glucoses..
