Common Non-Ferrous Metals:
* Aluminum (Al): Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, widely used in construction, packaging, and transportation.
* Copper (Cu): Excellent conductor of electricity and heat, used in wiring, plumbing, and electronics.
* Gold (Au): Precious metal, highly resistant to corrosion, used in jewelry, electronics, and finance.
* Silver (Ag): Best conductor of electricity, used in jewelry, photography, and electronics.
* Titanium (Ti): Strong, lightweight, and biocompatible, used in aerospace, medical implants, and jewelry.
* Zinc (Zn): Corrosion-resistant, used in galvanizing steel, batteries, and alloys.
* Tin (Sn): Used in tin cans, solder, and alloys.
* Nickel (Ni): Strong and corrosion-resistant, used in alloys, batteries, and plating.
Less Common Non-Ferrous Metals:
* Magnesium (Mg): Lightweight and strong, used in alloys and in the production of aluminum.
* Lead (Pb): Used in batteries, ammunition, and shielding.
* Mercury (Hg): Liquid at room temperature, used in thermometers, barometers, and fluorescent lamps.
* Beryllium (Be): Lightweight and strong, used in aerospace and nuclear applications.
* Cadmium (Cd): Used in batteries, pigments, and alloys.
* Indium (In): Used in semiconductors, solar panels, and LCD screens.
* Gallium (Ga): Used in semiconductors, lasers, and medical imaging.
Note: The classification of metals as ferrous or non-ferrous is based on their primary component. Some alloys might contain both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, but they are generally categorized based on the dominant metal.
