3. White metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_metal

   Bars and ingots of Babbitt metal. Tin-lead and tin-copper alloys such as Babbitt metal [2] have a low melting point, which is ideal for use as solder, but these alloys also have ideal characteristics for plain bearings. Most importantly for bearings, the material should be hard and wear-resistant and have a low coefficient of friction.

4. Titanium nitride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_nitride

   TiN is also widely used as a top-layer coating, usually with nickel- or chromium-plated substrates, on consumer plumbing fixtures and door hardware. As a coating, it is used in aerospace and military applications and to protect the sliding surfaces of suspension forks of bicycles and motorcycles , as well as the shock shafts of radio-controlled ...

5. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

   The base electrode metal is often coated with another inert metal such as gold, nickel, or tin. [8] The use of a coating material with good conductivity, mechanical robustness and corrosion resistance helps to reduce the influence of passivating oxide layers and surface adsorbates, which limit metal-to-metal contact patches and contribute to ...

6. Twist-on wire connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-on_wire_connector

   Twist-on wire connectors are commonly color-coded to indicate the connector size and, hence, their capacity. They are commonly used as an alternative to terminal blocks or soldering of conductors, since they are quicker to install and, unlike soldered or crimped connections, allow easy subsequent removal for future modifications.

8. Glass vs. Metal: Are You Baking With the Right Pan? - AOL

   www.aol.com/glass-vs-metal-baking-pan-140400993.html

   Most recipes will call for a tin for metal and a dish for glass or ceramic, while a pan can refer to either. In a pinch, you can swap one for the other in many recipes.

9. Whisker (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisker_(metallurgy)

   Metal whiskering is a crystalline metallurgical phenomenon involving the spontaneous growth of tiny, filiform hairs from a metallic surface. The effect is primarily seen on elemental metals but also occurs with alloys. The mechanism behind metal whisker growth is not well understood, but seems to be encouraged by compressive mechanical stresses ...
