Classification of Alloys
There are several alloys of various metals, such as alloys of Aluminium, Potassium, Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, Copper, Gallium, Silver, Tin, Gold, Mercury, Lead, Bismuth, Zirconium, and rare earth. Based on the presence or absence of Iron, alloys can be classified into:
-
Ferrous alloys: Contain Iron as a major component. A few examples of ferrous alloys are Stainless Steel, Cobalt, Gallium, Silver, Gold, Bismuth, and Zirconium.
-
Non-ferrous alloys: Do not contain Iron as a major component. For example, Aluminium, Brass, Bronze, Copper, Tin, Nickel, Magnesium, and Titanium are some common non-ferrous alloys.
