Fusibility
The ability of a material to be converted from a solid to a liquid/molten state, typically by heat, essential for metal casting.
Density
The mass of a material in a given volume, often compared to the density of pure water at 4˚C.
Chemical resistance
The capacity of a material to withstand damage from chemical reactions or solvents.
Corrosion/degradation resistance
The material's ability to endure environmental attacks and decay.
Impervious to gases
The material cannot be penetrated by gases like oxygen or carbon dioxide, making sealed containers airtight.
Non-toxic
A substance that does not cause immediate or long-term adverse health effects.
