Comparative characteristics of bronzes

Bronze is superior to iron in many performance indicators. It is much more flexible iron. In the twentieth century as the primary alloying element for bronze alloys have been introduced silicon. And later, aluminum. Bronze only oxidizes superficially; once the surface oxidizes, the thin oxide layer protects underlying metal from further corrosion. Alloys based on copper have a lower melting temperature than steel or iron. Processing easier and not so energy intensive. Bronze of about 10−12% heavier steel, except for the alloys doped with aluminium or silicon. Bronze springs are less stiff, and therefore require less spent energy and the same mass products. The cost of alloys based on copper is usually higher than that of steels but lower than that of alloys based on Nickel, such as stainless steel.

Application

Bronze resists corrosion (especially corrosion by sea water and other liquids containing chlorides) and metal fatigue better than steel and better conductor of heat and electricity than most steels. Bronze alloys have many uses where full use of their favorable physical, mechanical and chemical qualities, such as: anti-friction properties (manufacturing of bearings), resonance properties (used for making bells) and corrosion resistance (suparna valves).

The technical properties of bronzes

Depending on the chemical composition of bronze has the following physical-mechanical characteristics:

• Density, kg/m³ — 7580 8900…;
• Melting point,°C — 980…1060;
• The modulus of elasticity, GPA — 113…115;
• Coefficient of thermal conductivity, W/mgrad — 38…39;
• The limit of temporary resistance, MPa — 760…880
• Yield strength, MPa — 320…420;
• Elongation % — 8…15;
• Hardness on the Brinell hardness, HB, max — 160…210.
