    An alloy is a solid solution of one or more elements in a metallic matrix. Common alloys include brass (copper and zinc), bronze (copper, zinc, and tin), and steel (iron, carbon, and other elements). Alloys have properties derived from their composition, such as high strength, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity. Common uses of alloys include in aerospace, automotive, marine, industrial, medical, and sporting equipment applications to take advantage of their desirable properties.

    ALLOYS

    Prepared by:
    Ahmad Najibullah Bin Che Mohd
    WHAT IS ALLOYS ?
    An alloy is a partial or complete solid
    solution of one or more element in
    a metallic matrix.

    Complete solid solution alloys give single solid phase


    microstructure, while partial solutions give two or more
    phases that may be homogeneous in distribution
    depending on thermal (heat treatment) history.
     Only a few elements are widely used
    commercially in their pure form.

     Generally, other elements are present to


    produce greater strength, to improve
    corrosion resistance, or simply as impurities
    left over from the refining process.

    amounts of other elements)
    Stainless Steel Iron, Chromium, Nickel
    PROPERTIES OF
    ALLOYS
    Titanium

    Titanium also features excellent corrosion


    resistance, which stems from a thin oxide
    surface film which protects it from
    atmospheric and ocean conditions as well
    as a wide variety of chemicals.
    Is a white metal, and has the best strength to weight ratio among
    the metals. Titanium is very reactive, and because of this it is
    often used for alloying and deoxidizing other metals. Titanium is a
    more powerful deoxidizer of steel than silicon or manganese.

    Titanium is 40% lighter than steel and 60% heavier than


    aluminum. This combination of high strength and low
    weight makes titanium a very useful structural metal.

    Aluminium

    is a silverfish white metal that has a strong


    resistance to corrosion and like gold, is rather
    malleable. It is a relatively light metal
    compared to metals such as steel, nickel, brass,
    and copper with a specific gravity of 2.7.
    Aluminum is easily machinable and can have a wide variety of surface
    finishes. It also has good electrical and thermal conductivities and is
    highly reflective to heat and light.

    Copper is the more widely used conductor, having a


    conductivity of approximately 161% that of aluminum.

    Aluminum alloys have a strong resistance to corrosion which is a


    result of an oxide skin that forms as a result of reactions with the
    atmosphere .

    Alloy Steels

    comprise a wide variety of steels which have


    compositions that exceed the limitations of C, Mn,
    Ni, Mo, Cr, Va, Si, and B which have been set for
    carbon steels. However, steels containing more
    than 3.99% chromium are classified differently
    as stainless and tool steels.
    Alloy steels are always killed, but can use
    unique deoxidization or melting
    processes for specific applications. Alloy
    steels are generally more responsive to
    heat and mechanical treatments
    than carbon steels.

    • Aerospace alloys
     Scandium-Aluminum
     The main application of scandium by weight is
    in aluminum-scandium alloys for minor
    aerospace industry components. These alloys
    contain between 0.1% and 0.5% of scandium.
    They were used in the Russian military
    aircraft Mig 21 and Mig 29.
    • Marine alloys
     These alloys are used for boat building and
    shipbuilding, and other marine and salt-water
    sensitive shore applications.
