Sherry vinegar is a gourmet wine vinegar made from Sherry. It is produced in the Spanish province of Cádiz and inside the triangular area between the city of Jerez de la Frontera and towns of Sanlúcar de Barrameda and El Puerto de Santa María, known as the "sherry triangle". In the USA, to be called vinagre de Jerez, by law the Sherry vinegar must undergo ageing in American oak for a minimum of six months, can only be aged within the "sherry triangle" and must have a minimum of 7 degrees acidity. Most Sherry vinegars are aged using the same solera system as Brandy de Jerez; the production and quality of sherry vinegar is monitored and controlled by the Consejo Regulador and Sherry vinegar has its own Denominación de Origen, protected by Spanish and EU law. The only other vinegars with similar protected designation of origin are "Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale" from Modena and Reggio Emilia in Italy and "Condado de Huelva" in Spain. Vinagre de Jerez has a minimum of 6 months aging in wood. Vinagre de Jerez Reserva has a minimum of 2 years aging in wood.

Vinagre de Jerez Gran Reserva is a new category with a minimum of 10 years aging in wood. The style of sherry vinegar depends on the grape variety used to produce the wine it is made from. Palomino: Most sherry vinegar is produced from wines which were made from the Palomino grape; the wine being used to produce the vinegar can be young wine or can be a wine which has aged. Al Pedro Ximénez: Wines produced from the Pedro Ximénez grape are sweet very sweet, the vinegars produced from these wines are sweeter than other sherry vinegars or at the least have a sweet raisin nose. Sometimes Palomino vinegars are sweetened with the addition of a small amount of Pedro Ximénez wine. Moscatel: Small amounts of sherry vinegar are produced from the Moscatel grape. Sherry vinegar is used extensively in both French cuisine. In 2008 France was the largest market for sherry vinegar. Vinaigrette made from sherry vinegar is flavourful compared to vinaigrette made from standard wine vinegar and matches well with many foods.

In Jerez de la Frontera a traditional dish is "Riñones al Jerez": lambs kidneys with a sauce made from sherry wine and sherry vinegar. The best sherry vinegars have a deep, complex flavour and enhance the flavours in soups, sauces and dressings. Vinegar from sherry has been around since sherry was first produced around Jerez. In the sherry bodegas wines which had undergone acetic fermentation and turned to vinegar were considered failures, however since the 1950s winemakers started to view sherry vinegar as a product in its own right and now encourage it, they began to age their vinegars in the same way as their wines and brandies. Barrels containing vinegar are always removed from the wine bodega, this is to prevent other barrels of wine turning to vinegar. Any barrels which have contained vinegar cannot be used to store wine again due to the risk of acetic fermentation. In the past the vinegar was sold at the bodega door; some barrels were stored separately and forgotten about. These vinegars, many over 50 years old, are now being re-discovered.

Eglin steel is a high-strength, high-performance, low-alloy, low-cost steel, developed for new generation of bunker buster type bombs, e.g. the Massive Ordnance Penetrator and the improved version of the GBU-28 bomb known as EGBU-28. It was developed in collaboration between the Ellwood National Forge Company; the development of Eglin steel was commissioned to find a low-cost replacement for strong and tough but expensive superalloy steels such as AF-1410, Aermet-100, HY-180, HP9-4-20/30. A high-performance casing material is required so the weapon survives the high impact speeds required for deep penetration; the material has a wide range of other applications, from missile parts and tank bodies to machine parts. The material can be less expensive, it does not require vacuum processing. Unlike some other high-performance alloys, Eglin steel can be welded broadening the range of its application, it uses half as much nickel as other superalloys, substituting silicon to help with toughness and particles of vanadium carbide and tungsten carbide for additional hardness and high-temperature strength.

The material involves chromium and low to medium amounts of carbon, which contribute to the material's strength and hardness. At room temperature, ES-1's yield is 224,500 PSI, ultimate strength is 263,700 PSI. At 900°C, yield is 193,900 PSI, ultimate strength is 246,700. Rockwell hardness is 45.6. For toughness, the Charpy notch impact is 56.2 foot-pounds at room temperature, 42.7 ft-lbs at -40F. ES-1 is a balance of tensile strength, high temperature tensile strength and toughness. By varying the heat treatment to include water or liquid nitrogen quenching, or omitting the normalization heat-treat to permit work hardening, properties can be improved. ES-5, with an economical air and water quench, provides 244,800 PSI of yield, 291,900 PSI ultimate yield. By comparison, ordinary structural steel yields at 36,000 PSI, 4150 "ordnance" steel at 75,000; the material composition by weight is: Iron Carbon Manganese Silicon, stabilizes the austenite phase, enhances toughness Chromium, enhances strength and hardenability Molybdenum, enhances hardenability Nickel, increases toughness Tungsten, enhances strength and wear resistance Vanadium, increases toughness Copper Phosphorus Sulfur Calcium, sulfur control agent Nitrogen Aluminium The material has an unusually wide range of production methods for a superalloy: electric arc, ladle refined with vacuum treatment.

Vacuum treatments are recommended for best premium uses. The material has to undergo heat treatment involving normalization and tempering to develop the required austenitic microstructure, with subsequent tempering. Test plates were 1 inch. First they were normalized, they were charged in a furnace at 500F. Heated at 125F per hour to 1625–1725F. Held at 1750F for an hour per inch of section size, air-cooled to room temperature. Next the samples were austenized by repeating the process up to 1700F, held for an hour per inch of section size oil quenched to below 125F, they were tempered by in an oven that started below 500F, increased at 100F per hour per inch of section size, allowed to air-cool to room temperature.
