Abstract

The physical properties of a material are those properties that can be measured or characterized without the application of force and without changing material identity. This chapter discusses in detail the common physical properties of metals, namely density, electrical properties, thermal properties, magnetic properties, and optical properties. Some physical properties for a number of metals are given in a table.

Topics
Electrical properties, Magnetic properties, Optical properties, Physical properties, Thermal properties, Ferrous metals and alloys, Nonferrous metals and alloys
