sprödspröde
Sprödspröde is a term used in Swedish-language technical writing to describe a qualitative mode of material failure characterized by brittle behavior with little or no plastic deformation prior to fracture. The word combines spröd 'brittle' and spröde 'fragile,' and is often employed informally to emphasize fragility in a component or material system rather than to denote a formal material class.
In practice, a sprödspröde response is typically marked by abrupt crack initiation and fast propagation once
Common contexts include ceramics, tempered or quenched glass, ceramic coatings, and certain brittle polymers under specific
Since sprödspröde is not a formal property in engineering standards, its exact interpretation varies by author
