Materials with abnormal properties

Materials with abnormal properties

Positive Poisson's ratio (shrinks laterally when stretched), positive coefficients of thermal expansion (expand upon heating), and mechanically reciprocal (displacement at point B in response to a force at point A is the same as the displacement at point A in response to the same force applied at point B) are considered as “normal” properties. I have been searching for materials with abnormal properties.
