332.0 Aluminum vs. PA 4/6
332.0 aluminum and PA 4/6 belong to fundamentally different material chemistries. 332.0 aluminum is a metal, while PA 4/6 is a polymeric material. Therefore, their performance will be even more dissimilar than would be suggested by the difference in properties. There are 4 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (33, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is 332.0 aluminum and the bottom bar is PA 4/6.
