Distinguish 3 kinds of alloys

Ferroalloy
It mainly includes pig iron and steel. The difference between them is that the carbon content is different. The carbon content of pig iron is 2%-4.3%, and the carbon content of steel is 03%-2%. Steel has more excellent properties than pig iron, is easy to process, and has a wider range of uses. Stainless steel: steel containing chromium and nickel.
Advantages: Easy to process
Properties: Corrosion resistance, high strength
Uses: Generally used as alloying agent and deoxidizer for steelmaking production, generally used before or during the tapping process of the converter, the purpose is to remove the oxygen in the molten steel or adjust the chemical composition of the molten steel.

Aluminum Alloy

Adding magnesium, copper, zinc and other metals to aluminum form alloys. It is widely used in the manufacture of aircrafts, ships, and trucks, which can increase their load capacity and speed, and has the characteristics of resistance to seawater corrosion and magnetism.
Advantages: low density, high strength
Properties: good corrosion resistance, good plasticity and high strength
Uses: 1. Manufacturing fuel tanks, containers, pipes, and rivets. 2. Aluminum alloy is widely used in the manufacture of aircraft, ships, and trucks, which can increase their load capacity and speed, and has the characteristics of resistance to seawater intrusion and magnetism.

Copper Alloy
Brass: an alloy of copper and zinc; bronze: an alloy of copper and tin; cupronickel: an alloy of copper and nickel.
Advantages: Copper has excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, and its electrical conductivity is second only to silver and ranks second in metal. Copper has excellent chemical stability and corrosion resistance, and is an excellent electrical metal material.
Properties: Thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance,
Uses: Resistance materials, instrument parts
