| Cobalt (Co) | 1130 |
| Nickel (Ni) | 358 |
| Iron Oxide (Fe2O3) | 622 |
Gadolinium is ferromagnetic at temperatures below 19 °C (66 °F), approximately room temperature, and strongly paramagnetic above that temperature.

Famous quotes containing the words temperature and/or materials:
“The siren south is well enough, but New York, at the beginning of March, is a hoyden we would not care to miss—a drafty wench, her temperature up and down, full of bold promises and dust in the eye.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
“In how few words, for instance, the Greeks would have told the story of Abelard and Heloise, making but a sentence of our classical dictionary.... We moderns, on the other hand, collect only the raw materials of biography and history, “memoirs to serve for a history,” which is but materials to serve for a mythology.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
