Commercially Pure Silver vs. ASTM B631 Class A

Both commercially pure silver and ASTM B631 class A are otherwise unclassified metals. There are 14 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 commercially pure silver and the bottom bar is ASTM B631 class A.
