C76200 Nickel Silver vs. Titanium Diboride
C76200 nickel silver and titanium diboride belong to fundamentally different material chemistries. C76200 nickel silver is a metal, while titanium diboride is a ceramic material. Therefore, their performance will be even more dissimilar than would be suggested by the difference in properties. There are 14 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (18, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is C76200 nickel silver and the bottom bar is titanium diboride.
