Commercially Pure Zirconium vs. Grade 3 Babbitt Metal
Both commercially pure zirconium and grade 3 Babbitt Metal are otherwise unclassified metals. There are 12 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (16, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is commercially pure zirconium and the bottom bar is grade 3 Babbitt Metal.
