    It is generally known that the thermal stresses developed during thermal cycle results into cracking, and these thermal stresses are due to temperature gradients.

    Stresses will be equivalently lower for a particular temperature gradient when the thermal expansion is low.

    It also known that there will be a reduction in the temperature gradient if the thermal conductivity is high, as heat is dissipated faster and more equally and with it, as well as when deformation takes place due to thermal stresses, cracking occurs but if the ductility is high, more deformation will be allowed without cracking and thus reduces the tendency for cracking.
