∙ 10y agoThere are a great many applications for alloys apart from jewelry. As an example - bronze and brass are alloys that are used to make parts for many machines. Stainless steel is an alloy that seems to be ubiquitous.
No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).
Composition and Properties The best way to differentiate between brass and stainless steel is to know their composition. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, while steel is an alloy of iron, carbon, and chromium. Just by their base metal, you can easily tell which has suitable properties for particular applications.
A steel alloy.
It varies with the alloy. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin; brass is an alloy of copper and zinc; steel is an alloy of iron and other elements, most commonly carbon.
tin. Steel. Bronze. White Gold. Duralumin. Brass. Stainless Steel.
Some alloys are: stainless steel, zircaloy 4, brass, bronze, V2A, ferro-silicon, ferro-wolfram, etc.
subtitutional alloy and interstitial alloy
The term alloy is used for any blend of different metals, which may be nonferrous, such as brass or bronze, or ferrous such as stainless steel, or various other steels.
Stainless steel won't tarnish or rust. It is more cost effective now to use a cheaper metal and coat it with stainless steel. Some hardware is brass coated with stainless steel.

Manganese, aluminum, silicon, phosphorous, steel and brass make up a very small portion of alloys. For a more complete list, refer to the "related links".

stainless steel, aluminum, brass, zinc, or a nickel-silver alloy.
An alloy. Two types: substitutional (brass and bronze), or interstitial (steel).

Examples: stainless steel, zircalloy-4.
