In common usage, the term bronze identifies the alloy between copper and tin. This alloy composed mainly of copper (Cu), is enriched with tin (Sn) up to 8-9%, giving rise to alloys with good mechanical characteristics and great resistance to corrosion: these alloys are still workable plastically and can be laminated, extrude, forge, stamp and draw. By further increasing the tin content, the hardness reaches levels that allow only pieces obtained by casting, also called castings . On an industrial level, bronzes with a tin content of up to 30% are produced. The copper-tin equilibrium diagram is rather complicated. In general, bronzes always contain elements added in addition to the pond: Phosphorus deoxidizes and increases hardness; in the phosphorus bronzes there is a content of 0.4-0.8%. Lead is added in levels ranging from 1 to 5%. It remains confined to the edges of the grains thus making it easier to work with machine tools. If, on the other hand, lead reaches much higher percentages (from 10 to 30%), the alloy exhibits a particular friction behavior : this is why they are used for bearings. Zinc is used as a deoxidizer. Beryllium is added to increase hardness. Metalrecuperi Srl Imp.
