nooooo
at least try on something expendible like you said and report since you bought it already!
Dude, I wouldnt even use it for anything. I would just keep it in a vial and shake it around to look at it. <<;
its gona haunt u if u dont try...
Update on Page 1.
So whats the verdict ??
I'd like to know how it does using vapor phase ?

I wouldn't recommend it for phase change as it will expand as it solidifies.
Are you 100% about that ? almost all metals contract with cold and expand with heat.Originally Posted by Fairydust

I know gallium shouldnt be stored in glass containers because it will brake em when cooled to a solid. I would think this also goes for the gallium alloy.
I don't know how this cold soldering would affect adhesion to surface. I might be wrong in my opinion that it is unsuited for phase change. Still got 10 grams of the stuff, so if anyone with phase change and expendable equipment wants to give it a go, pm me.
it beat AS5 by a whopping 3-5 kelvin??? how much is that in celcius?
Kelvin is basically Celsius with absolute zero (–273,15 °C) as 0, so no negative values are ever needed. A delta T of 4 K is also a delta T of 4°C.
Major
Liquid metal -> solid. Solid is crystalized, so the volume is larger. Same thing as with water -> ice. It's different from regular cooler -> less volume when there is a phase change involved (liquid to solid)

Woa beat As5 by 3C at least
How much do you want for it?
You can find it on eBay.de (German eBay) it's ~$8.50 (€6.90) + ~$5 S&H (US$).Originally Posted by One_Hertz

I'm NOT watching pr0n, I'm studying anatomy
no discussing of selling/buying or prices on open forums.. take it to PM's if you want to purchase the gallium.
interesting that it beat as5 by so much. I'd like to see it tested on a calibrated test bench.
Is there any website review of it?

There is only 1 Review I know of, at Allround PC . But it's in german and the test methods are not spectacular.
isnt gallium toxic guys?
...
All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.
That was already discussed in this thread. No it is not.
wow that's some crazy stuff....like many of the others I'm sticking to AS5 myself lol...wouldn't want to try and mess with that.
Well I think putting that on an AMD64 IHS would prove to my friend that they aren't aluminum tops If they were aluminum it'd corrode them right? I believe I saw someone who lapped their IHS and it was copper....anyone else vouche for that?

You can weigh it and compare the mass to the same amount of aluminum if you want.
As to the toxicity - I was thinking of GalliumArsenide (I think) which is toxic.. and some others. Did some research on this a while back..
All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.
Final update added.
I bit, bought some....I'll give it a try. Seems good results. Who knows how well it will do with phase change...we'll find out.
