Ductility, an aristocratic ease, a delicate touch and fluent technique will carry off this study with good effect.

Ductility, ease, gracefulness were his aim; stiffness, harshness annoyed him.

Ductility: If the difficulty with which gold (the most ductile of metals) can be drawn be taken as one, then it will be seven times as difficult to draw tin into a wire.

Determinate Kind of Things, as [Errata: (as] Yellowness, Fixtness, such a Degree of Weight, and of Ductility, do make the Portion of matter wherein they Concur, to be reckon'd among perfect metals, and obtain the name of Gold.)

Whereunto is præmis'd Part of another Discourse relating to the same Subject. Robert Boyle 1659

Ductility and malleability do not always correlate with each other; for instance, gold is both ductile and malleable, but lead is only malleable.
