View source for Intrinsic property

An '''intrinsic property''' is a [[property]] of a [[system]] or of a [[material itself]] or within.

== Description ==

An intrinsic property is independent of how much of the material is present and is independent of the [[form]] of the material

For example, one large piece or a collection of small particles.

Intrinsic properties are dependent mainly on the chemical composition or structure of the material.
