  • Patent number: 11028464
    Abstract: The present invention provides a lead-free easy-to-cut corrosion-resistant brass alloy with good thermoforming performance. The brass alloy contains: 74.5-76.5 wt % of Cu, 3.0-3.5 wt % of Si, 0.11-0.2 wt % of Fe, 0.04-0.10% wt % of P, Zn and inevitable impurities. The alloy provided by the present invention has good cold-working and hot-working forming performance, and good dezincification corrosion-resistant and stress corrosion-resistant performance, applies to parts that require cutting and grinding forming in water-heating sanitaryware, electronic appliances, automobiles and the like, and especially applies to production and assembling of complex forging products for which stress is inconvenient to eliminate, such as water taps, values and the like.

  • Patent number: 8568656
    Abstract: The present invention provides an environment-friendly manganese brass alloy, which comprises 55˜65 wt % of Cu, 1.0˜6.5 wt % of Mn, 0.2˜3.0 wt % of Al, 0˜3.0 wt % of Fe, 0.3˜2.0 wt % of Sn, 0.01˜0.3 wt % of Mg, 0˜0.3 wt % of Bi and/or 0˜0.2 wt % of Pb, the balance being Zn and unavoidable impurities. The alloys not only have superior mechanical properties, castability, cutability and corrosion resistance, especially stress corrosion resistance properties, but also have the advantages of low manufacturing costs and simple manufacturing process etc, which is suitable for making components through forging, casting, cutting and other manufacturing methods, especially suitable for making water tap bodies and valves through forging, casting and cutting processes.
