GM-120 Glass Ceramic vs. Aluminum Nitride
GM-120 glass ceramic belongs to the glass and glass-ceramics classification, while aluminum nitride belongs to the non-oxide engineering ceramics. There are 10 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 GM-120 glass ceramic and the bottom bar is aluminum nitride.
