The term "ferrous" typically means a kind of metal or alloy which contains iron. "Non-ferrous", naturally, means a metal or alloy which contains little or no iron. Sometimes the term non-ferrous is used to describe any sort of metal which is not steel or iron. Finally, sometimes these terms are used to identify whether or not a metal can be affected by magnets. Ferrous metals will usually respond or "stick to" a magnet whereas non-ferrous metals are not easily magnetised.
Haha, basically asking for a list of elemental metals except for iron?
Here you go:
Lithium, beryllium, sodium, magnesium, aluminium, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, gallium, rubidium, strontium, yttrium, zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, silver, cadmium, indium, tin, antimony, cesium, barium, lanthanum, hafnium, tantalum, tungsten, rhenium, osmium, iridium, platinum, gold, Mercury, thallium, lead, and bismuth.
The term non-ferrous is used to indicate metals other than iron and alloys that do not contain an appreciable amount of iron.
Nonferrous metals are those that don\'t contain any traces of iron.
When we speak of non-ferrous alloys or non-ferrous metals, we are talking about metals and combinations of metals where there is no iron present.
Some non ferrous metals are: silver, gold, tin and lead.
Metals that are not iron and alloys that do not contain iron.
Bronze
Brass
etc.
non-ferrous metal means any metal or alloy that does not contain a significant amount of iron.
Any metal that doesn't contain iron or is not iron itself.
Stainless steel is a ferrous metal, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.A ferrous metal is one that contains primarily iron. Nonferrous metals are all metals other than iron, and alloys without an appreciable iron content.Chemically, stainless steels are 75-90% iron. They are alloyed with varying amounts of chromium, nickel, and/or molybdenum. Some grades of stainless steel are magnetic, some are not. The different grades also have different welding characteristics; some are easy to weld while others are difficult.Scrapyards that move ferrous metals with electromagnets may classify the nonmagnetic grades of stainless steel as nonferrous for handling purposes.Scrap dealers may also categorize stainless steel as nonferrous because the dollar value associated with scrap stainless steel is dependant on the alloy content; the alloys are much more valuable than iron. For these dealers, price is the primary interest and their classification as nonferrous is based on the price they can obtain from the alloy metals in the steel.These classifications are specialized industry uses of the term nonferrous. Generally and scientifically, all stainless steels are ferrous metals because the majority of their chemical content is iron.Stainless steel is a ferrous alloy, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.
If you mean elemental metals: Copper, Cobalt, Cadmium, Caesium, Calcium, Chromium, Californium, Cerium, Curium.
what are the characteristics of metals? metals? non-metals?
metals, metalloids, and non-metalsThese are roughly grouped from left to right on the periodic table. The metals are on the left, the non-metals are on the right, and the metalloids are inbetween. On many student periodic tables there is a dark, staircase-looking line that marks which elements are metalloids.
it means the rate transfer of heat through this metal and coductivity is the measure of this abillity
Tongling Nonferrous Metals was created in 1949.
Hunan Nonferrous Metals was created in 2004.
An oxide
Aluminum, chromium, titanium and nickel are just a few examples of nonferrous metals.
Non Ferrous metals are those metals which do not contain iron.They are not magnetic and are usually more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals.

Lead and zinc account for 2 and 3 percent of U.S. nonferrous metals production, respectively.
Because of their tendency to stick to the blade.
Ferrous rust's and non ferrous doesn't. :))
