Technical characteristics of bronze

Bronze is usually an alloy of Golden color, has a good adaptability and low coefficient of friction paired with other metals. Bronze has good fluidity and low shrinkage during casting in the form. This quality is used for artistic casting. Unlike steel, bronze when his contact with a hard surface will not generate sparks. This makes the bronze useful for the metal used around flammable or explosive materials.

Corrosion resistance

When exposed to air, oxidized bronze, but only on its outer layer. This layer (patina) consists of copper oxide, which is eventually converted into carbonate of copper. The oxide layer protects the inner metal from further corrosion. However, if there are chlorides (e.g. sea water), formation of chlorides of copper, which can cause «bronze disease» — a condition in which corrosion slowly destroys the metal.

Performance properties

The main operational characteristics of bronze include the following:

• density is determined by the percentage of tin in the alloy. For example, the result of lower percentage of tin from 8 to 4%, the density of the alloy increases from 8600 to 9100 kg/m³;
• Also, depending on the percentage of tin in the bronze alloy composition is changed and the melting point of bronze: 880… 1060 °C;
• The thermal conductivity varies in the range 0,2 0,098… cal/(NCM);
• Specific heat is 0,385 kJ / (ggrad);
• The conductivity of most bronze alloys yield the same value for copper, and is 0,087… 0,176 Ohm·m;

Bronze is considered to be corrosion-resistant alloy, however, when in contact with humid air the corrosion rate exceeds 0.002 mm/year, and in the liquid chlorine-containing environments reaches 0.04 mm per year.
