1/8-hard 60Pd-40Ag Alloy vs. 1/8-hard Silver

Both 1/8-hard 60Pd-40Ag alloy and 1/8-hard silver are otherwise unclassified metals. Both are furnished in the 1/8-hard temper. They have a modest 40% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 21 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (1, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is 1/8-hard 60Pd-40Ag alloy and the bottom bar is 1/8-hard silver.
