- Properties of Brass
- non-magnetic, low melting pointThe temperature at which a solid changes its state to liquid at atmospheric pressure is called the melting point of that liquid. The melting point is usually defined as the point... More, gold colour, etc.
The exact properties of different brasses depend on the composition of the brass alloy, particularly the copper-zinc ratio. Below are some characteristics of brass:
1. Brass is non-magnetic.
2. Brass, because of its high copper content, offers good corrosionCorrosion is defined as a natural process that causes the transformation of pure metals into undesirable substances when they react with substances like water or air. This reaction causes damage and... More resistance from water and heat and resists attack from saltwater and acids, minerals, and peaty soils contained in water.
