Cold Rolled EN 1.4477 vs. Work Hardened 90-platinum 10-iridium
Cold rolled EN 1.4477 belongs to the iron alloys classification, while work hardened 90-platinum 10-iridium belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals. There are 16 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (18, in this case) are not shown. Please note that the two materials have significantly dissimilar densities. This means that additional care is required when interpreting the data, because some material properties are based on units of mass, while others are based on units of area or volume.
For each property being compared, the top bar is cold rolled EN 1.4477 and the bottom bar is work hardened 90-platinum 10-iridium.
