When pressing a solid material it can take a different shape or change in size, however when bending a solid material this does not happen.
Explanation:
Solid state materials at a certain temperature are characterized by:
present a high cohesion between the molecules that form it (the particles are united by very high attractive forces that make them remain almost fixed)
have a constant shape and volume often forming characteristic geometric structures such as crystalline structures
they are incompressible
are resistant to fragmentation
they do not have fluidity because the particles can only vibrate around fixed positions
A flexible materialcannot be molded and only accepts shape changes when bending.
You do not get new materials when pressing a solid material.
