60Pd-40Ag Alloy vs. AWS BAg-7

Both 60Pd-40Ag alloy and AWS BAg-7 are otherwise unclassified metals. They have a modest 40% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 15 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (10, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 60Pd-40Ag alloy and the bottom bar is AWS BAg-7.
