Forsterite vs. Aluminum Titanate
Both forsterite and aluminum titanate are oxide-based engineering ceramics. There are 4 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 forsterite and the bottom bar is aluminum titanate.
