  • Опубліковано 20 жов 2019
  • Testing liquid metal gallium vs aluminum & 14 different metals to see how they react to the highly corrosive property of gallium. We'll be testing common metals, such as zinc, tin, brass, copper, steel, chrome, aluminum, nickel, bronze, stainless steel, magnesium, silver, lead, and uncommon metals such as bismuth and indium. After the application of gallium, we will wait 24 hours to see if the test metal was damaged or corroded by the gallium. Gallium vs aluminum and much more!

    I have an aluminum bicycle seat post stuck in a steel frame.
    I’ve seen an example where gallium can be used to eat away the post.
    My concern is the steel frame. From your video it seems that it would be safe at least in short term.
    What can I use to completely neutralize any effects of the gallium on the steel over time.

    Excellent video, this is exactly the sort of videos that I want to make when I make a channel! I was searching for this information for so long! and you gave such good information! can you try gallium with any other metals you didn't try in this video?
    you said: *"the metals were all strong except copper and indium"* I would have to disagree, tin and lead are very soft metals, in fact, you can scratch them with your bare hands. and bismuth is very brittle and also not very hard, aluminum and magnesium are softer metals as well.
