[edit]Nichrome is not used in dental fillings. Chrome cobalt alloys are used in frameworks for removable partial dentures, but not fillings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BoraBora98 (talk • contribs) 00:44, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
Units
[edit]Should we convert properties to standard units? For example for density it should be in mg/cm3 --JayDub (talk) 17:47, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Oh please, yes, yes yes! I came here to leave a far less polite comment on this issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 105.224.27.187 (talk) 08:43, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
Yes, please - 'ohms per foot', that's not useful. --217.228.166.35 (talk) 22:49, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
- It looks likes someone attempted this but got the units incorrect. ~1.12 pico ohms per meter is the correct number but wildly wrong units if I understand correctly. It’s ~1.12ohm*mm^2/m according to the source, not sure how it’s usually written on other wiki pages though. Jetpackjbd (talk) 15:49, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
curie point?
[edit]does anyone know the curie point of Nichrome-80? I'm guessing it's lower than pure Nickel, like Monel is, but would like a competent opinion 65.118.97.26 (talk) 17:19, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
Lack of photo
[edit]After 17 years, there is still no photo in this article to illustrate what nichrome looks like? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 00:41, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
Article subjectively gutted? Bring back the property tables
[edit]- 00:21, 29 November 2020 Thumperward talk contribs 4,390 bytes −13,841 →Properties: kill the tables. utterly useless in a general-purpose encyclopedia
This makes no sense. Removing such important information was "utterly useless." Was this ever discussed, or is this just one user's opinionated culling? Bring back the data tables! 76.180.139.90 (talk) 05:23, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- I completely agree. For a home-based, retired, but still A RESEARCHER, losing access to physical properties of common materials is a major blow. I can't afford to run to a university library, just to find out the permeability of a material I might want to use in a high frequency circuit. Wikipedia is not JUST an encyclopedia; it is a major reference work for the rest of us! 172.103.222.67 (talk) 19:57, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

- I only came here for the tables as referenced on other parts of google only to find some opinionated idiot has removed them, pretty useless page now. 216.213.152.231 (talk) 21:54, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
