Bronze
Bronze is a metal alloy. Bronze is mostly copper, with some tin added (usually between 5% and 20% tin) to make it stronger. The most common alloy is just made of copper and tin. Some bronzes add other metals.
Other bronzes are:
- Aluminum bronze, which uses aluminum instead of tin.
- Leaded bronze
- Silicon bronze
- Phosphor bronze, which has both tin and phosphorus added to the copper.
Bronze should not be confused with brass which is a different alloy of copper and zinc.
