C-310 Titania-based Ceramic vs. Zamak 3

C-310 titania-based ceramic and Zamak 3 belong to fundamentally different material chemistries. C-310 titania-based ceramic is a ceramic material, while Zamak 3 is a metal. Therefore, their performance will be even more dissimilar than would be suggested by the difference in properties. There are 5 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (37, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is C-310 titania-based ceramic and the bottom bar is Zamak 3.
