ductility and fracture toughness
(OP)
How can I quantify (in terms of %ductility) the fracture toughness of a (sintered) metal?

RE: ductility and fracture toughness
Ductility is a measure of the ability of a material to deform plastically without fracturing, as measured by % elongation or % reduction of area. For wrought materials one could make the correlation that ductile material will exhibit increased fracture toughness, because fracture toughness is the ability of a material to resist crack propagation.
RE: ductility and fracture toughness
How can I link (a bit better than qualitatively) ductility with reduced crack propagation?
RE: ductility and fracture toughness
Other than this, there are no equations or formulas that will provide an answer. I would contact the manufacturers of the sintered products and ask them if they have any specific test data related to your application.
