Elongation at break is the elongation a material can withstand when it is extended, just before it breaks. A material with a high degree of elongation at break is a material that can accept quite a bit of deformation before it breaks. For instance: a material with 15% elongation at break is a material which you can extend from 100 mm to 115 mm before it breaks.
