Gallium highly reactive (rubidium and caesium) nor highly toxic (mercury) and can therefore be used in metal-in-glass high-temperature thermometers. It is also notable for having one of the largest liquid ranges for a metal, and for having (unlike mercury) a low vapor pressure at high temperatures. Gallium's boiling point, 2673 K, is more than eight times higher than its melting point on the absolute scale, the greatest ratio between melting point and boiling point of any element. Unlike mercury, liquid gallium metal wets glass and skin, along with most other materials (with the exceptions of quartz, graphite, and Teflon), making it
Asset Disposal and Information Security Alliance Asset Disposal and Information Security Alliance The Asset Disposal and Information Security Alliance (ADISA) is an organization that recommends standards for safely disposing of information technology (IT) equipment while minimizing the risk of exposure and misuse of any sensitive data stored on that equipment. The ADISA standards cover all phases of IT asset disposal including the collection, transportation, storage, erasure or destruction of components containing data, and recycling or waste disposal. Certification included periodic audits. Founded in 2010, the ADISA publishes separate versions of the standard for Asia/Pacific, the European Union, North America and the United Kingdom. The ADISA IT
