Commercially Pure Silver vs. Austempered Cast Iron

Commercially pure silver belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals classification, while austempered cast iron belongs to the iron alloys. There are 18 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (11, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is commercially pure silver and the bottom bar is austempered cast iron.
