60Pd-40Ag Alloy vs. Commercially Pure Palladium

Both 60Pd-40Ag alloy and commercially pure palladium are otherwise unclassified metals. They have 60% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 20 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (2, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 60Pd-40Ag alloy and the bottom bar is commercially pure palladium.
