    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_copper_alloys

    Example of a copper alloy object: a Neo-Sumerian foundation figure of Gudea, circa 2100 BC, made in the lost-wax cast method, overall: 17.5 x 4.5 x 7.3 cm, probably from modern-day Iraq, now in the Cleveland Museum of Art (Cleveland, Ohio, USA) Copper alloys are metal alloys that have copper as their principal component.

  3. Coinage metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinage_metals

    Pre-1992 British pennies were made of 97% copper; but as of 2008, based on the price of copper, the value of a penny from this period is 1.5 new-pence. Modern British pennies are now made of copper-plated steel. Cupronickel, a base metal alloy with varying proportions of copper and nickel, was introduced as a cheaper alternative for silver in ...

  4. Cupronickel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cupronickel

    Cupronickel or copper–nickel (CuNi) is an alloy of copper with nickel, usually along with small quantities of other metals added for strength, such as iron and manganese. The copper content typically varies from 60 to 90 percent. (Monel is a nickel–copper alloy that contains a minimum of 52 percent nickel.)

  5. Pinchbeck (alloy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinchbeck_(alloy)

    Today, depending on the dealer, "Pinchbeck" can mean original Pinchbeck or any gilt metal. [1] Pinchbeck fell out of use in the second half of the 19th century, being replaced by low-carat gold which had been legalised in 1854. [3] Pinchbeck is typically composed of copper and zinc in ratios of 89% copper to 11% zinc; or 93% copper to 7% zinc. [4]

  6. Base metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_metal

    Examples include iron, nickel, lead and zinc. Copper is also considered a base metal because it oxidizes relatively easily, although it does not react with HCl. In mining and economics, the term base metals refers to industrial non-ferrous metals excluding precious metals. These include copper, lead, nickel and zinc. [3]

  7. Nickel silver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_silver

    Nickel silver, maillechort, German silver, [1] argentan, [1] new silver, [1] nickel brass, [2] albata, [3] or alpacca [4] is a cupronickel (copper with nickel) alloy with the addition of zinc. The usual formulation is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc. [5] Nickel silver does not contain the element silver. It is named for its silvery ...

  8. Zinc–copper couple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinccopper_couple

    Zinccopper couple is an alloy of zinc and copper that is employed as a reagent in organic synthesis.The “couple” was popularized after the report by Simmons and Smith, published in 1959, on its application as an activated source of zinc required for formation of an organozinc reagent in the Simmons–Smith cyclopropanation of alkenes. [1]

  9. Gunmetal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunmetal

    Gun metal, also known as red brass in the United States, is a type of bronze – an alloy of copper, tin, and zinc. Proportions vary but 88% copper, 8–10% tin, and 2–4% zinc is an approximation. Originally used chiefly for making guns, it has largely been replaced by steel for that purpose.
