Further types of brasses include alpha brass, beta brass and alpha-beta brass. Alpha brass contains less than 37% zinc as part of the alloy. These brasses are often used in manufacturing machine parts. Beta brasses contain over 45% zinc and are only worked while hot. They are not as d...
What Is Bronze? Bronzeis a metal alloy that primarily contains copper and 12% tin. Other elements—such as aluminum, arsenic, manganese, phosphorus, and silicon—are also added to yield different properties. These mixtures form some of the common bronze alloys, including: ...

Lead is commonly added to brass at a concentration of around 2%. The lead addition improves the machinability of brass. However, significant lead leaching often occurs, even in brass that contains a relatively low overall concentration of lead. ...
The broader category of metal casting, which has existed for thousands of years, contains many different processes that use a mold to form liquid metal. Historically, such a process usually involved pouring the liquid metal into the mold with the aid of g...
