Zinc

Zinc is a metal with countless industrial uses. As a base metal it is primarily used to galvanize steel which helps protect the metal against corrosion.

​

Zinc is a weak metal with a tensile strength less than 1/2 of mild carbon steel.

Pure zinc has low toughness and is brittle the majority of the time.

​

Ductility and malleability happens between 212-302°.

​

Zinc has moderate conductivity.

​

Common zinc alloys include solder, nickel silver, typewriter metal, spring brass and German silver.
