Blog Question

What are the uses of alloys and how do their properties change?

Alloys are metallic substances composed of a mixture or a metallic solid solution of two or more metals. Some of their uses consist of transportation (Al), construction (Al), ductility (Cu), aircraft turbine engines (Ni), and high corrosion resistance (Cu). The properties of alloys can change. The hardness of steel formed from carbon and iron can depend on the amount of carbon added and the processing it underwent.
