Bronze
Bronze is an
alloy consisting primarily of
copper, commonly with about 12%
tin and often with the addition of other metals (such as
aluminium,
manganese,
nickel or
zinc) and sometimes non-metals or metalloids such as
arsenic,
phosphorus or
silicon. These additions produce a range of alloys that may be harder than copper alone, or have other useful properties, such as stiffness, ductility or machinability. The historical period where the archeological record contains many bronze artifacts is known as the
Bronze Age.
