alloy for wire cloth screens. With an analysis of 80% copper and 20% zinc, low brass
offers good resistance to corrosion like copper although its electrical and thermal
conductivity are lower. The tensile properties of brass screen is higher than those
of copper with some sacrifice in formability. |
