  2. Gallium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallium

    The melting point of gallium (29.7646°C, 85.5763°F, 302.9146 K) [14] is used as a temperature reference point. Gallium alloys are used in thermometers as a non-toxic and environmentally friendly alternative to mercury , and can withstand higher temperatures than mercury.

  5. Galinstan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galinstan

    Galinstan is a brand name for an alloy composed of gallium, indium, and tin which melts at −19 °C (−2 °F) and is thus liquid at room temperature. [4] [5] In scientific literature, galinstan is also used to denote the eutectic alloy of gallium, indium, and tin, which melts at around +11 °C (52 °F). [5]

  6. Group 12 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_12_element

    Mercury has an exceptionally low melting temperature for a d-block metal. A complete explanation of this fact requires a deep excursion into quantum physics, but it can be summarized as follows: mercury has a unique electronic configuration where electrons fill up all the available 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 3d, 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f, 5s, 5p, 5d and 6s subshells

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_thermometer

    Gallium is considered non-toxic and when disposed of does not face environmental concerns. Like mercury, gallium is a liquid at body temperature (melting point 29.7 °C), but according to the manufacturer an alloy of gallium, indium and tin is actually used, resulting in a lower melting temperature.

  9. Liquid metal embrittlement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_metal_embrittlement

    The temperature range of the trough as well as the transition temperature are altered by the composition of the liquid and solid metals, the structure of the solid metal and other experimental parameters. The lower limit of the ductility trough generally coincides with the melting point of the liquid metal. The upper limit is strain rate sensitive.
