Why do we use tungsten, which is a metal having low resistivity to make the filament of a bulb, rather than using an alloy having high resistivity and high melting point? Why does metal feel cold? Why is the dielectric constant of water so high?
Why do we use freezing point and boiling point to calibrate temperature?Question:Why do we use freezing point and boiling point to calibrate temperature?Temperature measurement:Temperatures measures how hot or cold the substance feels. Temperature is defined as kinetic energy due to the ...

Superalloys, or high performance alloys, are alloys that exhibitexcellent mechanical strength and creep resistance at high temperatures, good surface stability, and corrosion and oxidation resistance. ... Chemical and petrochemical processing, power plants, and oil and gas industries widely use these sup...
We may use the info you submit to contact you and use data from third parties to personalize your experience. Tessa Axsom 12.08.2022 Time to read: 7 min Stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant iron-chromium alloy, is one of the most common and versatile metal alloys in the world. It’s...
We want to be one of the world's top five manufacturers of engineering adhesives. What demands do you meet? Precision, speed and user comfort. We use methoxyethyl cyanoacrylate (MECA) technology to formulate our instant adhesives. The resulting patented prod...
All Siltech Silver-Gold alloys (an alloy means a mix of two or more metals) do have positive aging. In other words, electrically, the wires improve over time, even when not playing music. Moreover, distortion reduces over the years, continuously improving sound quality. These special propertie...
Zinc is a transition metal that resists rust, and it is often used to coat other metals to prevent them corroding — a process called galvanizing. Alloys of copper and zinc are called brass, and they have been used since ancient times. When copper and zinc are separated by a distinct laye...
Ferrous metal is defined as any metal that contains iron. Ferrous metals are very common due to the heavy use of iron in most metal alloys. Ferrous metals contain a large enough iron content to create enough domains for a magnetic field to act on and attract. Ferrous materials are the only...
Silver teeth get their color from the metal materials they contain. Stainless steel crowns are a very common choice for children’s teeth. We also use metal alloys containing silver, nickel, chromium, and other materials. The silver material is molded precisely to fit over the tooth. We match...
