What else can I help you with?
Can magnesium be cut with a knife?
No, pure magnesium metal is a hard and brittle material that cannot be easily cut with a knife. It is commonly used in alloy form for industrial applications.
Can you have a gold titanium alloy?
Well Titanium is harder than steel and can be alloyed with different metals. Gold and Titanium can be alloyed together in various percentage. There is a brittle alloy of Gold and Titanium with 90% Gold and 10% Titanium. This alloy is used in dentistry, as this is really hard alloy of Titanium and Gold. This is shown in movies very easy to make, but it isn't. Well in Movies everything is possible... That's why they are called Movies.
Is an alloy made up of metal of two or more solids?
With high levels of carbon you get cast iron, a very hard but brittle alloy.With lower levels of carbon you get steel, a slightly softer but highly resilient and flexible alloy.
Is germanium malleable?
no, it is very brittle
Give you a sentence for the word brittle?
The old branches of the tree were brittle and snapped easily in the wind.
Is harder alloy steel is ductile or brittle?
brittle
What is the diffrince between ''brass''and ''bronze''?
Brass is an alloy of copper and nickel. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin. Bronze tends to be more brittle.
How are Tungsten Darts Made?
tungsten is a very strong and brittle metal. there are no darts made from 100% tungsten. it is always made with an alloy as tungsten is very brittle. the alloys are usually nickel, zinc and brass.
What element is mixed with steel?
Almost any metal might be included in a steel alloy. The simplest alloy that is called steel is an alloy of just iron and carbon. But it is the ratio that is important (e.g. cast iron is also an alloy of just iron and carbon, but it has too much carbon making it too brittle to be steel). There are also a few nonmetals (e.g. boron, silicon) that might be included in a steel alloy.
Panel beating a Land Rover defender?
Duralium, the alloy from which it is made tends to get brittle when it is hammerred.You have to temper it back by gently heating and cooling with oil.
Properties of cast iron?
Contact the CIPI / ASME depending on the application what the alloy is made of and the composition. A hard but not brittle composition, 97% iron, 3% carbon.
What is an advantage of using alloy instead of pure iron?
Iron as an alloy is stronger and has a higher melting point. It can also be made to be much more resistant to rust (the most resistant alloy being stainless steel). Hence it is preferred to pure iron.Pure iron is quite brittle and very susceptible to rust. Iron alloys maintain the strength of iron and make it more malleable (less brittle) and can also make the alloy resistent to rust.
Can magnesium be cut with a knife?
No, pure magnesium metal is a hard and brittle material that cannot be easily cut with a knife. It is commonly used in alloy form for industrial applications.
Why do you use an alloy?
An alloy would be useful if the material properties of the alloy, such as resistance to corrosion, are better than that of the metal that is normally used. It would be used in a case where operating conditions dictate using a material properties suited to its use. For instance stainless steel has chromium added to it which forms a thin oxide layer which is quickly replenished when scratched, but is not brittle like iron oxide (rust).
Can you have a gold titanium alloy?

What is the similie to as brittle as?
As brittle as glass.
Is pure an alloy?
no it is not an alloy. alloy is a mixture of metals
