  2. Non-ferrous metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-ferrous_metal

    In metallurgy, non-ferrous metals are metals or alloys that do not contain iron (allotropes of iron, ferrite, and so on) in appreciable amounts.. Generally more costly than ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals are used because of desirable properties such as low weight (e.g. aluminium), higher conductivity (e.g. copper), [1] non-magnetic properties or resistance to corrosion (e.g. zinc). [2]

  3. Material properties of diamond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_properties_of_diamond

    Uncommon magnetic properties (spin glass state) were observed in diamond nanocrystals intercalated with potassium. [43] Unlike paramagnetic host material, magnetic susceptibility measurements of intercalated nanodiamond revealed distinct ferromagnetic behavior at 5 K. This is essentially different from results of potassium intercalation in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewellery_design

    Jewellery design is the art or profession of designing and creating jewellery. It is one of civilization's earliest forms of decoration , dating back at least 7,000 years to the oldest-known human societies in Indus Valley Civilization , Mesopotamia , and Egypt .

  5. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

    Such steels are not hardenable by heat treatment and are essentially non-magnetic. [2] This structure is achieved by adding enough austenite-stabilizing elements such as nickel, manganese and nitrogen. [citation needed] The Incoloy family of alloys belong to the category of super austenitic stainless steels. [3]

  7. Properties of metals, metalloids and nonmetals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_metals...

    The chemical elements can be broadly divided into metals, metalloids, and nonmetals according to their shared physical and chemical properties.All elemental metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form alloys with other metallic elements; and have at least one basic oxide.

  8. Byzantine chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_chain

    A Byzantine chain is a metal intricate design used in jewelry that incorporates a rope-like texture and organic textural design. The chains are supple and flexible, and drape well. The chains are supple and flexible, and drape well.

  9. Nickel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel

    Nickel is a silvery-white metal with a slight golden tinge that takes a high polish. It is one of only four elements that are ferromagnetic at or near room temperature; the others are iron, cobalt and gadolinium. Its Curie temperature is 355 °C (671 °F), meaning that bulk nickel is non-magnetic above this temperature.
