Commercially Pure Silver vs. ASTM B780 Alloy

Both commercially pure silver and ASTM B780 alloy are otherwise unclassified metals. They have 75% of their average alloy composition in common. There are 17 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (4, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is commercially pure silver and the bottom bar is ASTM B780 alloy.
