Metallic Element | |
||||
| Metallic iron is believed to have been known and used for ornamental purposes and weapons in prehistoric ages. It is soft, malleable, and ductile, making it a very versatile material. Iron is easily magnetized at ordinary temperatures; it is difficult to magnetize when heated. Pure iron has limited use, and iron is most often used as a primary agent in making tougher and stronger alloys. |
