Hardness
Hardness is a measure of how resistant
solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a compressive
force is applied. Some materials, such as metal, are harder than others. Macroscopic hardness is generally characterized by strong
intermolecular bonds, but the behavior of solid materials under force is complex; therefore, there are different measurements of hardness:
scratch hardness,
indentation hardness, and
rebound hardness.
