AISI W1 Steel vs. Low-oxygen Zirconium

AISI W1 steel belongs to the iron alloys classification, while low-oxygen zirconium belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals. There are 16 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AISI W1 steel and the bottom bar is low-oxygen zirconium.
