Alloys are a special case of chemical mixture. They are solid mixtures composed primarily of metallic elements. Other nonmetal elements (C, P, Si, etc.) may also be included in special cases.
Iron alloys
Steels
Copper alloys
Bronzes
- C54400 Phosphor bronze is used for springs, among other things.
Brasses
Lead alloys
Solders
Low melting point alloys
- Wood's metal
- Rose's metal
Anode alloys
Tin alloys
Nickel alloys
- Invar
- Superalloys
- Nichrome
