BronzeOriginally a term for copper alloys having tin as the only or principal alloying element. In modern usage the term "Bronze" is seldom used alone, and the terms "Phosphor Bronze" or "Tin Bronze" is used for indicating copper-tin alloys. In fact, the term "Bronze," together with a suitable modifying adjective has in recent years been extended to apply to any of a great variety of copper alloys.
