Alloy Composition

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Alloys are mixtures of metals (and sometimes nonmetals) that exhibit improved properties (strength, corrosion resistance, etc.). Examples include steel (iron-carbon), brass (copper-zinc), and bronze (copper-tin). Alloy composition influences crystal structure, hardness, and ductility. Metallurgists fine-tune these compositions for applications ranging from construction to aerospace, relying on phase diagrams and thermodynamic data.
