## Properties

| Property                                                                                          | Description                                                                                                   |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [bounceCombine](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/physicsmaterial/bouncecombine.md)     | Determines how the bounciness is combined.                                                                    |
| [bounciness](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/physicsmaterial/bounciness.md)           | How bouncy is the surface? A value of 0 will not bounce. A value of 1 will bounce without any loss of energy. |
| [dynamicFriction](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/physicsmaterial/dynamicfriction.md) | The friction used when already moving.  This value is usually between 0 and 1.                                |
| [frictionCombine](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/physicsmaterial/frictioncombine.md) | Determines how the friction is combined.                                                                      |
| [staticFriction](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/physicsmaterial/staticfriction.md)   | The friction coefficient used when an object is lying on a surface.                                           |
