Z13004 Zinc vs. C35000 Brass

Z13004 zinc belongs to the zinc alloys classification, while C35000 brass belongs to the copper alloys. They have a modest 37% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 24 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (6, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is Z13004 zinc and the bottom bar is C35000 brass.
