Type 3 Magnetic Alloy vs. Commercially Pure Zirconium

Type 3 magnetic alloy belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while commercially pure zirconium belongs to the otherwise unclassified metals. There are 19 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (12, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is Type 3 magnetic alloy and the bottom bar is commercially pure zirconium.
