Metal Powder

Bronze powder is defined as alloy manufacture of copper and another metal, usually tin.  Compositions of bronze can be varied, however, the most modern bronze composition is  88% copper and 12% tin. Bronze may also contain manganese, aluminum, nickel, silicon, phosphorus, arsenic, or zinc. Bronze usually is a golden hard, brittle metal and the properties depend on the specific composition of the alloy as well as how it has been processed.

Bronze powder manifests low friction against other metals. Many bronze alloys exhibit the unusual property of expanding a small amount when solidifying from a liquid into a solid. For sculpture casting, bronze is advantageous, as it helps to fill a mold. Bronze is utilized in architecture for structural and design elements.

Bronze powder wool is applied instead of steel wool in woodworking because it doesn't discolor oak. It is also employed for bearings due to its friction properties, and as phosphor bronze in musical instruments, electrical contacts, and ship propellers. Aluminum bronze is employed to make machine tools and some bearings. Bronze has been used to make coins. 

Bronze powder is harder than copper, producing it useful for tools and weapons. It can be sharpened. It also flows better into molds. Phosphor Bronze is applied in the manufacturing of springs, bolts, and fastener. These parts need to be resistant to fatigue and wear while exhibiting high elasticity. Phosphor Bronze is employed in the parts of digital electronics, automatic controllers, and automobiles.

Bronze powder: The material is great for molding processes like press punching, bending, and drawing. Parts made with Phos Bronze are known for their high performance, processability, and reliability. Tin bronze exhibits very strong, ductility, corrosion resistance properties so it is utilized in the seawater and brines.
