History

Brass was smelted since antiquity. Until the end of the XVIII century it was obtained by melting copper and zinc ore, which was mixed with charcoal. Only in the XIX century, this method was replaced by a direct method of fusing copper and zinc. Due to strength, corrosion resistance, comparative cheapness and attractive appearance — this is the most common copper alloy. Depending on the content of zinc, the color of brass varies from light yellow to reddish.

Types of brass

The multi-component (special) brass can be aluminum, siliceous, aluminum-nickel, iron-manganese, etc. An alloy that contains about 0.5% aluminum and 15% zinc has a high resistance to atmospheric corrosion and a golden beautiful color. This alloy of brass is used as a substitute for gold for artistic products and insignia. Brass with the addition of up to 1.5% lead (also called marine brass) has an increased resistance to corrosion, even in sea water, and adding up to 3% lead makes the shavings to break and, when machined, allows a high-purity surface. It is used in the watch and in the automotive industry.
