  3. Superhard material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhard_material

    Most metal borides are hard; [41] however, a few stand out among them for their particularly high hardnesses (for example, WB 4, [42] [43] RuB 2, OsB 2 and ReB 2). These metal borides are still metals and not semiconductors or insulators (as indicated by their high electronic density of states at the Fermi Level ); however, the additional ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmium

    Uranium and osmium were early successful catalysts in the Haber process, the nitrogen fixation reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen to produce ammonia, giving enough yield to make the process economically successful. At the time, a group at BASF led by Carl Bosch bought most of the world's supply of osmium to use as a catalyst. Shortly thereafter ...

    The hardest substance in the DC Universe. Often used in the Legion of Super-Heroes comics, especially by Element Lad, who uses his transmutation ability to craft prisons and shields from it. Inoson E. E. Smith's SkyLark series: A synthetic metal; has "the theoretical ultimate in strength possible for any material possessing molecular structure".

    A 2023 consumer reports study found elevated levels of lead or cadmium in a third of dark chocolate — but new research found metals in fewer than 3% of samples.

  8. Refractory metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_metals

    The strength and high-temperature stability of refractory metals make them suitable for hot metalworking applications and for vacuum furnace technology. Many special applications exploit these properties: for example, tungsten lamp filaments operate at temperatures up to 3073 K, and molybdenum furnace windings withstand 2273 K.

    4Cr14MoV, EN 1.4117 / DIN X38CrMoV15, good enough to make kitchen knives. 5Cr15MoV, some knives manufacturers define as 5Cr13MoV, the hardness could be 55–57 HRC. It's widely used to make kitchen knives, high-end scissors, folding knives, hunting knives, etc. It is equivalent to 1.4116 and German 4116 steel in composition.
