  2. Intrinsic and extrinsic properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_and_extrinsic...

    In materials science, an intrinsic property is independent of how much of a material is present and is independent of the form of the material, e.g., one large piece or a collection of small particles. Intrinsic properties are dependent mainly on the fundamental chemical composition and structure of the material. [1]

  3. Intrinsic and extrinsic properties (philosophy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_and_extrinsic...

    An intrinsic property is a property that a thing has itself, including its context. An extrinsic (or relational ) property is a property that depends on a thing's relationship with other things. For example, mass is an intrinsic property of any physical object , whereas weight is an extrinsic property that varies depending on the strength of ...

  4. Permeability (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(Materials...

    Permeability, or intrinsic permeability, (k, unit: m 2) is a part of this, and is a specific property characteristic of the solid skeleton and the microstructure of the porous medium itself, independently of the nature and properties of the fluid flowing through the pores of the medium.

  5. Chiral media - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiral_media

    Any object that cannot be superimposed with its mirror image by translation or rotation in three dimensions has intrinsic 3d chirality. Intrinsic means that the chirality is a property of the object. In most contexts, materials described as chiral have intrinsic 3d chirality.

  6. List of chemical classifications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical...

    Chemical classification systems attempt to classify elements or compounds according to certain chemical functional or structural properties. Whereas the structural properties are largely intrinsic, functional properties and the derived classifications depend to a certain degree on the type of chemical interaction partners on which the function is exerted.

  7. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    Homogeneous system: Band structure is an intrinsic property of a material, which assumes that the material is homogeneous. Practically, this means that the chemical makeup of the material must be uniform throughout the piece.

  9. Inherent chirality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inherent_chirality

    In chemistry, inherent chirality is a property of asymmetry in molecules arising, not from a stereogenic or chiral center, but from a twisting of the molecule in 3-D space. The term was first coined by Volker Boehmer in a 1994 review, to describe the chirality of calixarenes arising from their non-planar structure in 3-D space.
