IMPORTANT ALLOY COMPOSITION

Name Brass Bronze Composition Cu(60% to 80%), Zn (40 to 20%) Cu (75 to 90%), Sn (25 to 10%) Use For making household utensils For making coins, idols, utensils For making utensils For making aircraft frame For making cheap ornaments For making alkali resistant containers For making bells Used for engineering purpose Soldering of metals In aircraft manufacturing For making nails, screws, bridges for making cooking utensils, knives

German Silver Cu (60%), Zn (25%), Ni (15%) Magnelium Rolled Gold Monel metal Bell metals Gun metal Solder Duralumin Steel Stainless Steel Mg (5%), Al (95%) Cu(90%), Ni (10%) Cu (70%), Ni (30%) Cu (80%), Sn (20%) Cu (85%), Zn (10%), Sn(5%) Sn(50-75%), Pb (50-25%) Al (95%), Cu (4%), Mg (0.5%), Mn (0.5%) Fe (98%), C (2%) Fe (82%) Cr, Ni (18%)

ALLOYS = Their Contents aluminium bronze = Cu+Al brass = Cu+Zn bronze = Cu+Sn bell metal = Cu+Sn red coin alloys = Cu+Zn+Sn white coin alloys = Cu+Ag+Zn+Ni duralumin = Al+Cu+Mg+Mn electron = Mg+Zn german silver (nickle silver) = Cu+Zn+Ni gun metal = Cu+Sn+Zn magnalium = Al+Mg pewter = Pb+Sn solder = Pb+Sn type metal = Pb+Sb+Sn

wood metal = Bi+Pb+Sn+Cd monel metal = Ni+Cu+(Fe+Mn is traces)
