    Malleability is the ability of a substance or metal that is able to be squashed, beaten or flattened into thinner sheets of metal under no heat or furnace without any damage or cracking of the substance or metal being processed or worked.
    Examples of worked or processed malleability are tin foil, aluminium foil and also flattened leaves of gold.
    Other more scientific malleable substances are niobium and tantalum.
