Liquid metal

Liquid metal may refer to

* One of the five metallic elements liquid at or near room temperature, namely rubidium (melting point 39 °C, 102 °F), francium (27 °C, 81 °F), mercury (−39 °C, −38 °F), caesium (28 °C, 83 °F), and gallium (30 °C, 86 °F). One other element, bromine, is also liquid at room temperature (-7.2 °C, 19 °F) but is not a metal.
* The substance liquidmetal, a versatile amorphous metal alloy developed at Caltech.
* It is also a name for Galinstan, a fusible alloy liquid at room temperature, used as a replacement of mercury.
* XM Liquid Metal, a channel on XM Satellite Radio.
